How freaking awesome is that? Non-US citizens, the Macy's Thanksgiving day Parade is a pretty big deal and part of the whole Thanksgiving tradition. Sadly, it's become a cavalcade of crappy teens lip-syncing their shitty music and dance numbers from the worst plays on Broadway, but that nod to internet pop culture almost makes up for it.
I watched part of the parade. The bands still manage to strut their stuff, if you'll pardon the expression. They really need to go back to using cheerleaders from universities though.
I laughed so hard watching that. Had to explain it to my Ma. Anywho, most college bands I saw marching today had cheerleaders prancing around. Yet again , the only college band I remember seeing was ole Georgia Tech's.
