December 1: The Parade

Something celebratory!

1: The Parade
“I want a parade! Hot dogs, balloons, the whole schmeer!”

Floats, balloons, bands, possibly torches. Macy’s sponsors the big one at Thanksgiving in New York, a feature of many a Thanksgiving or Christmas movie or TV episode, but it’s far from the only one around the world - more locally, Linlithgow has a torchlit Advent Parade on St. Andrew’s Day, as I discovered when attempting to get across the city centre one year.

In gaming, parades are usually either targets for villains, or celebrations of the PCs’ heroics, or both. But any event that draws a crowd could be a chance to make new acquaintances in other ways too.
