Carnival Cruise Lines sponsored the event, which included music, food and cruise giveaways to celebrate the Record-breaking pinata .

   "We wanted to give Philadelphians an opportunity to experience the Carnival culture of fun by being a part of a new world record and having the chance to win a free Carnival cruise," said Carnival Cruise director John Heald.

 This new world record for the Largest pinata broke the record previously held by a 48-foot-tall pinata Microsoft sponsored in Mexico City in 2006.

  The first attendees got a chance to appear in a Carnival commercial that was going to be shot on sight with the pinata.
