The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade serves as the official start of the holiday season for millions of Americans. We tune in to NBC each year to watch our favorite artists perform alongside floats, balloons, marching bands, and other talented performers. During the parade, many familiar faces from NBC pop on camera to help commentate the event. Of course, this year was no different. While Today Show hosts Savannah Guthrie, Al Roker, and Hoda Kotb had the most airtime, Jimmy Fallon also popped in during the parade, and his appearance made many people wonder if he knew where he was. You see, it was a cloudy and rainy morning in New York City. But it seems Jimmy Fallon didn’t notice because he had his sunglasses on the entire time. His accessory didn’t go unnoticed on social media, and fans were positively ruthless.

Viewers Wondered What The Heck Jimmy Fallon Was Hiding Under His Sunglasses
Jimmy appeared to be having a good time, but the sunglasses just didn’t fit the atmosphere. Plenty of people speculated Jimmy had too much fun the night before.
Someone wrote on X, “Jimmy Fallon showed up to the Thanksgiving Day parade in sunglasses on a bender. I heard some called it Blackout Wednesday this year, but for Jimmy, it was just another Wednesday.”
Lots of people agreed and shared funny memes.

But this fan didn’t seem to care what went on the night before. They were just happy to watch Jimmy in the parade. “Jimmy Fallon knows how to have a good time and party we should learn a lot from him and being positive and always making people smile around us and enjoying life to the fullest like he does. Happy Thanksgiving everybody.”
Why Jimmy Fallon wore the sunglasses remains to be seen, but he was happy, that’s for sure.
