There's so much to be thankful for, and I'm thankful to you! Thank you for listening and guiding the program for the past years. Today, we're sharing this fun fact about the famed New York City Thanksgiving Day Parade!

感謝大家多年來對節目的聆聽和支持。今天，我們來分享一個關於著名的紐約市感恩節遊行的有趣歷史小故事！

Here is the original text from the New York Times:
以下為紐約時報原文：

Fun fact: It didn’t start out as a Thanksgiving parade at all, but as a stunt to jump start the 1924 Christmas shopping season (and to edge out the rowdy Ragamuffin Day parade). That year, the floats were accompanied by store employees and animals borrowed from the Central Park Zoo. The organizers quickly realized that marching tired elephants and tigers through Midtown just wouldn’t fly, but big balloons might. And for a dozen parades or so the balloons were released into the air over Manhattan, with a return address label that promised a $100 bounty for their return. Mayhem ensued, so that got nixed, too.
