Anyone going to this years Thanksgiving Day parade?

For the first time in its 83 year history there will be a new route for the Thanksgiving Day parade starting on the Upper West Side at 77th street. The parade will head down 7th avenue until 42nd street. The parade will proceed across 42nd street and then make a right on 6th avenue (going down 6th avenue) until it reaches Herald Square, 34th street. All these streets will be closed but spectators are advised to arrive early if they would like to see the inflation of the balloons.

Thankfully I will not be in in New York for this whole mess but for those that do go be safe and enjoy the balloons. Happy Thanksgiving!
