Get all the latest news, live updates & top stories on Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade
People - Al Roker, who has made memorable appearances along the iconic Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade route for 27 years, was unfortunately not at this year's event because he's recovering from blood clots in his leg and lungs that sent him to the hospital earlier this month. During NBC's broadcast of the 96th annual parade today, Roker's fellow morning show co-hosts sent him get-well wishes. "For the past 27 parades, at this moment, Savannah, we would turn to Al Roker, who is our Today show colleague and our best pal," Hoda Kotb said. "But as a lot of you have heard, Al's recovering — he's recovering very well from a recent medical issue. And we just want to say, we love you Al. Wondering if you're watching, but we wish you a full recovery."
