Speaking of parades and football...

Does the parade conflict with the Thanksgiving day football games? Watching the parade is one of my favorite things ever, and DH's family is coming for Thanksgiving this year, and they're ridiculously into football. If I don't get to watch my parade I'm going to cry, lol.

    If I remember right, I think the parade is on early in the AM and football is on in the afternoon after the parade. I think you're safe. Big Smile

    This year football is different because there are 3 games (usually there's only 2).  I am not a parade fan because I usually sleep in (they usually start football later when there's only 2 games), so what time does the parade start?  As long as it's done by 9 AM PST (which seems possible given that it's in NYC), you're fine.  Football is:

     9:30 AM PST - Green Bay at Detroit (should be a really good game)

    1:15 PM PST - Miami at Dallas (don't expect this one to be too good - Dallas should likely win)

    5:00 PM PST - San Francisco at Baltimore (am hopeful this will be a good game; depends on what Baltimore team shows up)

    HTH for TV and food planning.  :)

    Ugh, this is helpful, but no good :(. The parade starts at 9am PST as well (they start the broadcast at the same time regardless of timezone). Blurg.

    I am really not looking forward to this Thanksgiving.

    Two different TVs?  Or DVR?  Or find a local sports bar that's open for the games... wouldn't surprise me if places were open for that first game, it will be a big one!   Or, find an online feed of the parade and watch it early?

    yea, I guess we'll dvr the parade, and watch the football game (I know I'm going to get overruled). we only have one tv, and I'll be stuck in front of it with my foot up on the couch.

    Play dumb and act like you don't know there's an early football game (since the parade starts at 9:00 and the game at 9:30), and maybe H's family won't realize / say anything?  :)
