The state of New Mexico’s float — featuring Wile E. Coyote chasing after Road Runner on old Route 66 — won the Bob Hope Humor Award at the 2009 Rose Parade on Thursday in Pasadena, Calif.
You can see the artist’s rendering of the float by Fiesta Parade Floats of Pasadena, which was contracted by New Mexico.
Photos images of the float can be seen here and here. The Route 66 shield on the road is visible on the first photo.
Ron,
Very appropriate with Colorado Boulevard being Route 66 in Pasadena.
Mike
Nice Route 66 shields on it. Also a good float from St. Louis and the Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, high school band. If, I recall, Broken Arrow isn’t too far off Route 66.
