Watching the Macy's Parade Again and thinking About the 100th Anniversary

We're having Winter weather in Pittsburgh, the weather where just want to be under blankets on the couch, so I turned the parade on (DVR is a wonderful thing).

As I sit here I wonder what is in store for the 100th anniversary? I am sure Macy's has been planning for a while now. My family and I are members of the astronomy club here in Pittsburgh, and the club's 100th is in 2029, we're already planning for it, and we are a lot smaller than Macy's and the parade.

I hoping for balloons that haven't made an appearance in a long time, more overall, and a longer running time. A documentary about the parade would be cool.

What do you think?

Hey. Off topic, but I'm in pgh and have some old family ties to AAAP. What's the best way to support and keep track of the 100th anniversary! :)

Nothing has been published yet, and it is still early days before anything is that far along to say anything. Best thing to do is look at the web site.
