i had to drive through that nightmare this weekend and it was ridiculous. I'm a tolerant person but when you cause that kind of gridlock you get no sympathy from me. I don't understand the need to inconvenience tens of thousands of people for your own agrandization; the whole parade seemed pointless to me.
Parades, festivals, marathons, etc have cultural value, build community, and bring in tourists.
But roads are roads.
It's a tough call for civic politicians and government workers. I'm not sure how I would organize things or assign space.
