It's tomorrow for some reason that I'm sure is completely pathetic.

It's tomorrow, they never have it on Sunday. I find this annoying. And hubby says the game is not until Wednesday, so that makes no sense.

Luckily I have tomorrow off, so I can watch the parade. But it's not the same.

The Rose Parade has a tradition of never on Sunday. It will be on Tuesday.

Back in the 1890s, when the parade started, people had a little more respect for Sunday as a religious day of rest than they do now. That's why.

Never On a Sunday by Melina Mercouri

Oh, you can kiss me on a Monday a Monday a Monday
is very very good
Or you can kiss me on a Tuesday a Tuesday a Tuesday
in fact I wish you would
Or you can kiss me on a Wednesday a Thursday a
Friday and Saturday is best
But never ever on a Sunday a Sunday a Sunday
cause that's my day of rest

Most any day you can be my guest
Any day you say but my day of rest
Just name the day that you like the best
Only stay away on my day of rest

Oh, you can kiss me on a cool day a hot day a wet day
which ever one you choose
Or try to kiss me on a gray day a May day a pay day
and see if I refuse

And if you make it on a bleak day a freak day or a week day
Well you can be my guest
But never ever on a Sunday a Sunday the one day
I need a little rest
Oh, you can kiss me on a week day a week day a week day
the day to be my guest

It seems when the parade first began the organizers made an agreement with the churches on Colorado Blvd. that they would never hold the parade on Sunday and they’ve kept that agreement. Still, on Sunday it didn’t rain.

And I’m so mad about Stephanie Edwards being stuck out in the rain – the interplay between her and Bob Eubanks is a tradition and the main reason I watched over the years. A new perky younger woman now sits beside Bob—while Stephanie risks pneumonia on the street—and I no longer have a reason to watch KTLA.
