CM Punk Named Grand Marshal of the Chicago Thanksgiving Day Parade
Sunday November 16, 2008
Pro wrestling star and former World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk (right) has earned the honor of Grand Marshal of Chicago's Thanksgiving Day Parade. You can head to State Street on Thanksgiving Day to catch a glimpse of the 6'1", 220lb+ wrestler. (Fortunately, he's from Chicago, so he knows that if he's planning on wearing what he's got on in the picture, he's going to need at least a sweater.)
If giant balloons on strings and marching bands are more your speed, you're in luck, too. There will be plenty of those.

I think that is so cool. He is one that is very proud of being from Chicago IL. I believe that this is just one more way of showing his proud Chicago stars. I really am happy that he was givin this honor. I hope everything goes great for him. Phil Brooks/CM Punk is a wonderful person and one of the best wrestlers I have ever seen.
This is to Phil: I hope you have fun and enjoy the day. Stay safe and warm. Happy Thanksgiving and when I say my grace I will make sure I thank God for you. I love you and Hope you and your family enjoy the Hollidayz. Just keep amazing me which would not be very Hard. Take care beautiful.
