In
the year of 2004 it snowed during the parade and yours truly
was of course there. Here's a big shout out to all those wonderful
marchers and other participants who braved the cold temperatures!!!! 'and in 2006 I stood there for hours enjoying every single minute on a sunny yet extremely cold day.

NYPD is reminding people that public drinking of alcohol is strictly
forbidden during the parade. Anyone found drinking can be ticketed
and arrested, and police will confiscate all alcoholic beverages.
