Some of the confetti strips include references to Romney’s motorcade, presumably after the second presidential debate took place at Hofstra University in Nassau County last month.
Ethan Finkelstein, a university student, was at the parade when he and a friend noticed a strip of confetti on her coat.u00a0He said, “It landed on her shoulder, and it said ‘SSN’ and it was written like a social security number, and we’re like, ‘That’s really bizarre’.”
Finkelstein said he and his friends found more confetti containing more apparent police records. He said, “I’m in shock. How could this kind of information be distributed at the Thanksgiving Day Parade?”
A spokesman for Macy’s said it used ‘multicoloured confetti, not shredded paper’.
