How far in advance did you make room reservations or purchase a ticket.
Is it possible to view the volunteers gluing the flowers on floats early in the morning?
Recommend place to stay or place to view the parade?

Thanks and Happy B-day.

My interest in the Rose Bowl died when Fox Sports killed the Pac 10/12. So much tradition lost. PeaceWave Jan 2025 #21

Not entirely true -- watched/heard a whole thing on the collapse of the PAC-12 (PAC12 commissioner is mostly to blame) JT45242 Jan 2025 #31
