Daily News | Good old-fashioned cheer at Philly Thanksgiving Parade
Philadelphia’s Thanksgiving Day parade unfolded much like the 102 that preceded it — to the enthusiasm of everyone in attendance.
As DeFazio speaks, a huge blue and white abominable snowman roves into view, to chants of “Spin It!, Spin It” from the crowd. Few people mentioned the pandemic at all, and fewer wore masks. West Philadelphia resident Aoife O’Farrell, wearing an N-95, said that as long as people were vaccinated and boosted she thought the crowds were safe.
“We decided to start getting away from just cooking , and [actually] enjoying Thanksgiving. So we started coming out last year and it’s going to be a tradition from now on,” she said. The rest of the day, she added, would be devoted to heating up pre-made food, eating with family, and visiting friends around the neighborhood.
