Did Macys ever lose a parade balloon?
Macys lost a parade balloon in 2005 and it was Garfield. Macy's has lost a few balloons over the years. Early in the parade's history, the balloon handlers would release all the balloons at the end of the parade, sending them skyward. Macy's then offered $100 bounty on each returned balloon as a sales gimmick. Not all the balloons were returned, and one floated so high it became wrapped around a small airplane wing, causing the plan to crash. Macy's ended the practice after that.
