I walked on 4th from Bell to Pine and saw nothing until I got to Westlake. There was a sizable crowd, all of whom was likely confused about the lack of a parade. There were a few drill/dance troupes performing in Westlake, but I was hoping for marching bands. How do they make a call like "low turn-out"?? It seems to me that once the parade was underway, there would be a fair amount joining the ranks on the streets, at least to see WTF was going on. Sad...</p>
