It has been announced that Arlo will be in the Macy's Alice's Restaurant Day Parade! ( Although they call it something else) See announcement's for Arlo's annoucement......that I just announced.....after Arlo did......over there. :?

I hope he's near the Bullwinkle balloon.

Arlo,been listening since '69 and still do every chance I get. Saw you last year in Collingwood Ontario, about 6 miles from my place. I try to get to Stockbridge every few years just to take in the flavour of the place even though there are some real "special" people there now. Congrats on the Parade,think they'll run it past Whitehall St for you, that'd be the best Thanksgiving yet! Good luck, good health and PEACE

Tomorrow is Must-Watch televison. Well, the football games are on, too, but it's not everyday we can see Arlo on parade!

OK I just watched Arlo in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and they actually CUT HIM OFF only two verses into This Land Is Your Land! How UTTERLY disappointing!

Yeah, it was also disappointing with the coverage...lots and lots of talking heads,very little actual parade. Some of them need to just STFU! Lots and lots of commercials, too.
I was baking pies, so it was something to watch while I was busy.

I did see Jacklyn, Olivia and Serena behind Sarah Lee and Arlo...looks like they were having a great time riding on the float and waving to the crowd and cameras!

Pre-empted by his old adversary, no less! Kermit musta really been upset and holding a grudge all these years! Oh well, the family looked great :)

We all had a great time at the parade! They didn't cut us off at all. We had to condense the on camera time to a minute and a half which was about the same for everyone. I got the two most important verses in there and overall it was a delightful and wonderful time. Best was seeing all of my peers and the old vets with two fingers in the air as we went by. It could have been worse. Thanks to all who made it possible! I would even do it again - if asked. :)

Was watching the parade with my daughter when Arlo took me by surprise and brought tears to my eyes...singing in the Thanksgiving Day parade! Always a part of Thanksgiving but never part of the parade before. Cool. 8) No matter who is here, or not, for whatever reason... the feast is on, the kids are happy and the parade brought an unexpected surprise this year! Thanks man. :D

I'm so glad to hear they didn't cut you off. You and the kids all looked so happy and excited to be there! And I was happy and excited to see you there! Happy Thanksgiving!
