We love a parade

Yes, it’s Capital Ex time again, Edmonton.

And our stomachs are already begging us not to order this 1kg hamburger:

But, before all the excitement at Northlands really gets going, it begins with a parade.

Now, just like last year, we’re going to put out the call to you, the good readers of the edmontonian, to provide us with a photo (or video, we’re not picky) of some sweet, parade action.

We do this for two reasons: you do good work and Sally is banned from the parade due to that one year she wore a costume of fresh mini donuts, only to have the hot oil sear her skin, forcing her to run screaming, and fairly nude, frightening children and adults alike.

If, like last year, we don’t end up having any Capital Ex parade pictures to post, we can always depend on our buddy Ryan giving us a play-by-play of Shaw TV’s play-by-play.

Don’t forget, the parade is going to cause downtown traffic mayhem, Wednesday night,  Thursday morning, and Thursday afternoon.
