It's not the Macy's Day Parade..it's the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Not only do you hear some people refer to it that way in conversation, you even hear broadcasters on the news call it that.

LOOKING FORWARD to the Macy's Day Parade? Well, what the heck is Macy's Day? It's the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, of course, but that odd common error has been published by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Cox News Service, the Jupiter (Fla.) Courier, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Florida Today, the Palm Beach Post, the Tampa Tribune, the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel and the Asheville (N.C.) Citizen-Times, among others, and that's just this year.

Relatives that I haven't seen in a while sitting down in my living room and chatting while I try to watch my 5 hours of Football! Who do they think they are?
