"Wilt Parade Balloon" CN ad - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

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 soo true...

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

LMAO Cassini!

And aw, that's sweet. I love how they went "Ooh, I think we have an accident." that was classic. Poor Wilt got snagged on power lines! S'what you get for being bigger then life I guess. :p

I just saw the ad! Now, I'm a little confused. Are they actually going to have that float at the parade too, or just the one with Wilt and the house?

SkittleMonkey · 11-20-2006, 12:08 PM

I think the Wilt balloon was just for the ad. It all looked computer generated to me.

DoubleLatte · 11-20-2006, 12:15 PM

Ditto. Same thing my sister told me when she saw the ad and was kind enough to inform me about it.

Speaking of which, did anybody actually catch the sneak preview thing of the floats on the Today Show? Someone here posted about it.

EDIT: Never mind.
