I'm taping the show right now - they haven't gotten to the floats yet. :terrsmile:

edit: they just showed a preview of the segment. Wilt! :D

Okay the segment is over - I honestly don't think uploading a video is necessary because the camera never moved, so there's only one shot of the float anyways. However, the guy stood beside the Foster's float the entire segment, so it got some GOOD airtime for the Today show. It's the House, with Wilt standing in front (and that's all we could see). I'll get a screencap in a minute.

I expected Eduardo for some reason but I'll happily settle for the house. Did the Today crew say anything interesting about the show?

Well the guy DID "introduce" the float to the other reporters, by describing what the show was about, which is great press. Anyways I'm sure there will be more characters, they didn't show the entire float.

Okay there were two more shots than I thought I would get - from the abovementioned segment preview, when they did a closeup of Wilt. So here's all three:

The farthest-back shot

The reporter standing beside the float

The closeup

Maybe they didn't want to make Wilt smile because of the tough time he's going to have in the movie airing the same day as the float. ;) It looks like he's listening to something.

(If these pics do anything evil to my bandwidth I'll have to move them to Imageshack or something. I dunno how many ppl are going to come here to look at them.)

Looks pretty good, can't wait to see it in the parade! :)

Very nice. I do like the close-up of Wilt!:D

If anyone does want to see a video of the segment, they have it up on the:MSNBC Website

(They'll probably have the video up for just the remainder of today though, so be quick.)

Just select "Today Show Video" and then click the link: "Turkey Day Parade Celebrates 80'th anniversary."

The float looks amazing from what I can see in the pictures. I can't wait to actually see it floating down the streets of New York City!

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaang. Wilt looks amazing!

Good stuff. Wilt looks like maybe he's got butterflies in his stomach or something, eh? :wiltshock: I cannot wait to see this thing in action. ;)
