When we were kids we went to every parade in the area. Dad would drag us there.

I personally have warmed many a street curb in my childhood and believe that is the reason I have no rear end today, it was slowly worn down over the years.

I caught about 5 minutes total of the parade, LOL, I boycott the rest for political and social issues.

I used to go to business meetings in Pasadena a few times a month and would drive by the area where they set up the massive grandstads, so I considered that attendance.
