We live in Texas, and went out there for the Rose Bowl several years ago when OU played Washington State. We didn't go because we just were just not interested in parades, but we did get caught up in it trying to get to the stadium. As for watching it..I might flip over there a couple of times, but I usually don't even do that....I don't even go to the parades around here unless my kid is in it or something. I remember we had the Cotton Bowl Parade here in Dallas for most of my life, but I never had an interest in going.
