So where was all of the local high school bands? Most years at least two Tulsa public high schools are represented.

I saw East Central and Hale. Gravette Arkansas, Beggs, were there.

Was East Central the band with no signs early in the parade? Was Hale the big blue sound? I saw begs and gravette, though they are not TPS so not who I was referring to. Anyway poor signage made it seem like less local schools where represented. Best parade in a few years.
Thank you,

It was a good parade. Yes, the big blue sound was Hale and the all red uniform band early on was East Central.

We saw one of the bigger TNF celebrities there.  The downtown (all inclusive) parade, that is.

Bands look at this time of year to play the nicest slot they can get. We have many great local high school bands who regularly play bowl games so that leaves lesser local bands and nearby communities to play our parades, for which playing this event is a big deal.

You may have been home, Guido, but your ego had its own float.  And it was a big one!  Mine was bigger, though.

May you live in interesting times.

What would you say is the optimal distance?  Not to far. Not too close.   ;D

The Broken Arrow Pride will be marching in the Rose Bowl parade. I'm guessing that getting them would be like booking Justin Bieber.

A mistake?

I was standing at 4th and Cheyenne. Right before the fireworks went off the parade sped up to 60 MPH and the last few floats went speeding by. There were a few really long gaps at the begining of the parade so I guess they were trying to make up for lost time?
