BACKGROUND MUSIC *Sesame Street theme marching band version (1988 - 1993). *The dancing city closing credits that every 90s kid would remember the most, including me! (kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpecmaCVfMqdqbM) • For Big Bird: 1994? - 2006 • Abby Cadabby: 2008 - 2009 • The Sesame float only: 2010 - 2013 Now the background music is the Sesame credits from Season 38 to 45.

[@supermariof0521]

As far as I know, Big Bird is the one balloon that managed to make it through ALL parades it was in without needing to rely on video tape to substitute.

[@ralftoonz7474]

There are a couple of others like Woody woodpecker Clifford Spongebob Many of the 2000s and 2010s balloons
