It's Oktoberfest in January
At least that's what the Burbank Tournament of Roses Association has in mind with their design for the 2008 Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena. The Burbank City Council gave their nods yesterday, and it's now up to the group of local volunteers to build and decorate the thing. (Other towns, like the City of Glendale, has all the work contracted out to professionals...)
The Burbank association also is taking applications for an Oompah band to perform on the float, and some backup dancers.
