There's A New Marshal In Town
Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!
From what I can tell the parade marshal's main job is to keep things moving along the parade route. As you can see there were no floats on the street so it looks like he was doing his job!
The Tucson Rodeo Parade is believed to be the nation's longest non-motorized parade dating back to 1925. All the parade entries are horse pulled other than the marching bands and the street sweepers who always end the parade by cleaning up the landmines left by our equine friends.
BTW the "stinking badges" line originally came from the 1948 film The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. I probably saw that movie as a kid since all the kids loved westerns when I was young but I don't remember it. I knew the paraphrase of the line from the 1974 Mel Brooks classic "Blazing Saddles".
