<\/a><\/p>\nHow would it work.\u00a0 Bands, Floats and Sponsors followed by a chance for all the participants to watch the game on the Jumbotron in the local enclosed stadium.\u00a0 I imagine a Rose Parade type event without the flower theme. Floats with fashion, entertainment, commercial and technology based themes.\u00a0 More high tech than Macy’s balloons and definitely more TV friendly than the Rose Parade.\u00a0 Each float and band would have three minutes or so in the limelight.\u00a0 Half of the time the camera would be on the parade entry and half would be on their commercial.\u00a0 Some examples:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Victoria’s Secret no brainer<\/li>\n
- Waffle House Tasting float<\/li>\n
- Ace Hardware National band<\/li>\n
- Whatever the hot new movie is.<\/li>\n
- The State of Colorado Tourism bureau.<\/li>\n
- Emirates Air<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The main attraction for the sponsors would be a chance to have an affordable ad near the Super Bowl.\u00a0 The TV Network would have a very low cost but potentially high profit product.\u00a0 The bands would be delighted to march and the sponsoring city would sell 100,000 hotel room nights at very little cost after the initial roll-out.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nThe only question in my mind is why hasn’t someone thought of this before.<\/p>\n
