I mean... seriously! I gigantic Gobo Fraggle balloon/float and I'm finding out about it now? I also came across a Red Fraggle parade balloon too. The Gobo one just floored me a bit more. He's always been m'boy. Now how am I gonna fit this in my house?

In Tennessee of all places. Do they just happen to really like fraggles there? Cuz that's a pretty darn good balloon.

I know! It's amazing! There's a Red Fraggle balloon too but I kinda think people know about that one. I vaguely remember it. This Gobo one has me floored though.

That balloon is amazing, I wonder if there is any particular reason why they featured a Fraggle in the parade

Someone posted video of it. They didn't seem particularly interested in it but they got some footage. Lemme just get the link * plays Jeopardy music * Okay,

That's pretty cool. I'm not really much of a parade person, but I'd like to have seen that on TV.

I'd have followed it until it was deflated.

Everyone probably already knows this one, but I gotta say it anyway. In the 1984 Macy's Parade, there was a Fraggle Rock float.

I love that. I remember seeing it when it aired... it was a few years before we got HBO.

That float was amazing, especially the giant Junior Gorg animatronic
