Among those waving from a float Weiter Thursday (Nov. 24) will be Scotty McCreery. The American Idol will ride on the Home Baked Goodness float Singen "Trouble with Girls."
From Tom Turkey, the balloon that historically launches the parade, until Santa glides in front of Macy's flagship store three hours later, 800 clowns, 27 floats, 1,600 cheerleaders, 44 novelty balloons and 11 marching bands wend their way three miles downtown during Macy's 85th annual parade begins on NBC at 9 a.m.
Like everyone, McCreery has a Favorit balloon, and he even relates to it.
"Is there a Charlie Brown one?" he asks. "I Liebe that one! People say, when I was younger I looked like him. When I was young I was chubby -- when I was really, really young."
