Rose parade

While waiting for the ball to drop at Time Square last night (sorry, it's taped for the west coast), the channel 11 News (Fox) showed hundreds of people hanging out on Colorado ave at Pasadena just for Saturday's morning's Rose Parade. Okay, it's LA and it stopped rainning in the afternoon, I still couldn't help wondering why those people have so much energy for that? Not to mention one woman said her family were there every year! The only thing I can say is that everybody has their own purpose in life and waiting 24 hours on the street for Rose Parade is just not my thing.
