Did anyone go to the Giants parade?

FH worked it today (NYPD). He was so excited that he got to walk with one of the floats in the parade.

Yes!!!! I figured it was a once in a lifetime event so I surprised my kids by taking them. We couldn't see too much, but it was (insert corny adjective) to be there.

Well worth all the crap I will have to deal with tomorrow and something (hopefully) my kids will never forget.

Re: Did anyone go to the Giants parade?

My brothers went to the parade and they said it was so amazing. However, my brother Anthony brought his super bowl hat with him that my mom bought for him. It wasnt a cheap hat first off..second as one of the floats were coming by it stopped right by where my brothers were. So anthony tossed his hat onto the float for them to sign. A bunch of players signed it and the one went to toss it back to him and a cop jumped in front, grabbed the hat mid air and tossed it into the crowd!!!!!!!!!! My brothers were in tears and screaming like lunatics. I felt SO HORRIBLE for him yesterday...figures our luck anyway
