Let's float this idea past you

The Dodgers, in their 50 years living in these parts, have never had a float in the Rose Parade.
They've decided that this Jan. 1, it's time to get their act together. The unveiled what the thing will look like today.
Here are the particulars for it (using our best Bob Eubanks voice):
==Aside from popcorn and peanuts, blue ribbon irises and scissored blue stattice will be the central color of the Dodger blue float, along with white mums and red carnations. Gold and yellow roses with accents of white dendrobium and lavender and white cattleya orchids will also be on the contraption floating down Colorado Blvd.
== That's a 35-foot tall Dodger player popping out of the top
== Organist Nancy Bea Hefley will be playing
== Tommy Lasorda, Vin Scully, Jamie Jarrin, Fernando Valenzuela, Steve Garvey, Carl Erskine, Don Newcombe, Wes Parker, Nomar Garciaparra and James Loney will be along for the ride.
== Roger Owens, the Peanut Guy, will be on the float as well (maybe tossing goobers to the spectators)?
== Special guests on the float include Billy DeLury (the former traveling secretary and current special assistant to the Dodger broadcasts, having been an employee for 58 years), Kathy Robinson Young (Jackie Robinson's niece and a Pasadena resident) and Ann Meyers Drysdale (Don's widow).

One word of caution:
Festival Arts Floats, which is doing the float for the Dodgers, says that one of the materials used on this float will be peanuts, so those with peanut allergies should avoid volunteering here.
