Two heroes in my youth. I learned a lot from underdog. I used him as an inspiration in my political career. It did not take long to put their spirit on full display. The best part is being with my crew from new orleans. Its so great to be here in beautiful new york. We brought some of that new orleans weather back home. Even with an abundance of security on this day lets all be thankful theres still plenty of innocence as well. Whats your favorite part of the parade . Santa. Big balloons. I like the floats. Spongebob with the san ta hat on. I like the star balloons, the macys star balloons. I like the turkey because its thanksgiving. Are you going to eat some turkey later . Yes. How much . A lot. Reporter i think she speaks for a lot of people, a lot of turkey coming. The parade ends downtown near 34th street and then its dinner with the family for a lot of people and then begin.
