Wilt Parade Balloon Ad

(Oh no I violated YouTube's TOS! It may end up being removed, I guess...)

An ad that aired during the showing of Make Believe that I recorded so I snipped it out and uploaded it to YouTube. I *have* to assume that balloon is CGI.

Wow, I'm missing a lot of stuff lately.

Nice video there.

YAY! Wilt has his own BALLOON in the parade, as well as the float! AND the female announcer thought he was cute, too. Now, it's on to appearances on "The Tonight Show", "Oprah"(and you KNOW Oprah would be all OvER Wilt's story), co-hosting "Saturday Night Live"(OK, maybe not...); just make sure he cannot actually see or hear the audience, and everything should be great.

Then Wilt could be on "Survivor". He'd be the first reality show contestant in history to vote himself off so everyone else could stay longer.

But if he did that, he wouldn't get the million dollar prize, and couldn't give it to the poor starving orphans...

Yeah and unlike some celebrity guests, you would know for a fact that Wilt would not leave footprints on Oprah's couch towards the end of the interview.

Sorry, but there won't be a Wilt Balloon in Macy*s Parade Thursday. That was just imagined for the ad.

I wish they had a wilt balloon for real. That would be awesome

Yep. I saw a different clip today during an ad for Friendsgiving and Good Wilt Hunting and they used that same Wilt "balloon." It's not real; they're just using it to act out their own little version of the Thanksgiving Day Parade.

For some reason, that made me giggle!

:p That got a giggle out of me too.
