Most all parades are annoying. I can't say I've been to the Gay Pride or PR parade though.

The St. Patrick's Day parade used to be the worst of them all. I lived on the Upper East Side, so all the big parades dumped out in my neighborhood. March 17 was always the day I could expect to navigate around puddles of green barf, while shouldering my way through the crowds of sh!tfaced, open-container-holding cops in uniform trying to pick up equally drunken girls outside of bars.

That parade has gotten considerably tamer over the last few years.

I was in Chelsea one day, after the gay parade ended. The block filled up with leathermen all of a sudden. Before I got to the end of the block, a thunderstorm broke out, and you should have heard the shrieking.

Sounded like a mouse got loose at a sorority reunion. ;D

If I remember correctly, a teenager was beaten to death on Madison Avenue during the St. Pats parade a couple of years ago...

...but St. Pat's and Columbus day are almost as bad in may ways.

Perhaps, but the Puerto Rican Day Parade was the only one that resulted in having objects thrown at me from a speeding vehicle for the crime of walking back to my apartment, so it holds a special place in my heart.

Yes, grown men shrieking and dashing for cover.

I'm not sure whether they were more concerned about their leather or their hair.
