1980s Throwback: Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade | Part 1

Eyewitness News has been rooting around the Channel 7 Vault, and we've dusted off some comfort TV you'll surely enjoy this Thanksgiving.

We've put together two half-hour specials bringing you our original Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade coverage, just as it aired starting in 1980 and throughout the rest of the decade.

You'll see the great floats of the day - Bullwinkle, Snoopy, Garfield and more - as well as the sights and sounds of paradegoers decked out in their 1980s best! And you'll see some beloved celebrities on the floats, like Mary Lou Retton, Erik Estrada, Jim Nabors and more.
