It's too bad......
Parades! Who doesn't like a nice parade? I agree with Gracie in that I find it difficult to see the "downside" to the developer (if he is in fact behind a no parade stand) in either marketing TV or from a financial standpoint. If we lose the parades it will be the loss of a substantial TV tradition.
