Driving was pretty much completely out of the question, and it took my group nearly an hour to walk four blocks trying to get to the show. I would bet most people picked either parade or show and didn't budge. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-4056243246167304552016-06-09T15:41:18.656-05:002016-06-09T15:41:18.656-05:00+1 @ JoJo+1 @ JoJoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-85024897250704866512016-06-09T15:40:48.958-05:002016-06-09T15:40:48.958-05:00A crowd of 800,000 on average would have generated...A crowd of 800,000 on average would have generated 25,000 gallons of urine (disregarding the beer drinking).
