Along the way, it highlights some of the more unusual and humorous aspects of the parade, such as the advice to wear adult diapers in case of emergencies. However, the article also takes a darker turn when it recounts the notorious incident in 1997 where a balloon handler was injured and the beloved children's character, Barney, was brutally killed by police. The article concludes by noting that the incident led to changes in the parade's rules and regulations, but also highlights the enduring appeal of the event as a symbol of American culture and the 'spirit of fun'." ] ], "content": "nostr:nprofile1qyd8wumn8ghj7ctjw35kxmr9wvhxcctev4erxtnwv4mhxqpqppf623vpm0668p8xret9sse574yyxr385c2r3yjvu2e8yf0mvh4s00zxda\nhttps://www.youtube.com/embed/epgXuMB1sF8\nPicture it.
