[Answer] When was the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade first broadcast in color?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "When was the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade first broadcast in color?"



...Macy's is one of New York City's most iconic department stores. The flagship store in Manhattan's Herald Square was so successful that it expanded to cover an entire city block in 1924. To celebrate this "World's Largest Store," Macy's threw a parade on Thanksgiving morning. This parade quickly became a New York holiday tradition, with the development of television taking it national. Americans got to see the parade in color for the first time with the 1960 broadcast.

[Answer] What was the first balloon to ever take part in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "What was the first balloon to ever take part in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?"



...Felix the Cat was a star of the silent film era and had a comic strip in newspapers around the nation when he made his Thanksgiving Day Parade debut in 1927, the first year the event featured cartoon character balloons. Without a plan to deflate this massive balloon, NYC parade organizers simply let Felix fly off into the sky. Unfortunately, the Felix the Cat balloon got caught in some telephone wires and caught fire. In 2016, after a nearly 90 year hiatus, Felix made a triumphant return to the parade. Mickey Mouse did not join the parade until 1934. Snoopy and Uncle Sam also came along in later years.
