The 98th annual parade made its way through New York City today. Despite temperatures being in the high 40s with bone-chilling rain, people lined the route from 77th Street to Macy’s flagship store in Herald Square.
This year’s musical lineup included acts such as Dan + Shay, Jimmy Fallon and the Roots, and Jennifer Hudson. It also included the legendary Motown group, who performed on the Wonder Bread float, also known as the “Wondership.”
Of course during today's @Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade there was a flawless transition from @thetemptations' My Girl to @McDonalds Grimace 💜

A video posted by the SNY Mets shows the soul singers performing their 1965 classic while donning raingear and huddling under umbrellas. Their fans were all doing the same, but they didn’t seem to mind the weather.
“TEMPTATIONS MY GIRL IN THE PARADE I ALMOST CRIED,” someone posted on X.
Mets Fans Believe The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Temptations Performance Was A Nod To Their Team
Mets fans couldn’t help but notice that the Grimace was following right after the Temptations throughout the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. My Girl has long been associated with the baseball team, and Grimace became their good luck charm after the McDonald’s mascot threw the first ball for a game and ended their losing slump.
Watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and they just had The Temptations sing “My Girl” followed immediately by Grimace on the McDonald’s car……
