Trivia[]

  • 1933 was the first and only year where the Parade was held on November 30th, as Thanksgiving was celebrated on the last Thursday of November until 1941.
  • Many people misthought that Tom Cat appeared in the parade, but it was later clarified that he didn't appear.
  • All of the balloons were repainted (expect for Felix the Cat).

Incidents[]

  • Gulliver had his nose punctured, but he was repaired at Lincoln Square.
