The Hula Hoop Clowns are a clown unit from the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
History with the Macy's Parade[]
The Hula Hoop Clowns made their first appearance in the 1992 Macy's Parade. The clown unit featured a gaggle of goofballs performing silly tricks with multi-colored hula hoops; all of them wearing bright wigs and colorful clown outfits. The clown's outfits were later changed to give them hula hoop tops, which came in orange-and-green and red-and-blue variants.
The Hula Hoop Clowns made annual appearances in the famed holiday spectacle until their last appearance in 2004.
