The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade doesn’t go off without a hitch every year.
The world’s largest parade originally began in 1924 and has become the go-to watch on Turkey Day. From the giant balloons to the musical performances, there’s something for everyone in the household to enjoy before digging into their Thanksgiving dinner.
Since 1952, families around the United States have been able to watch the broadcast on NBC. But with live TV comes potential on-air mistakes such as injuries and balloon malfunctions.
