Downtown ILM is busy. Why in the world would you let a parade come through there on a work day, in the first place? A parade does not mean everyone is under lockdown in their businesses. This stuff needs to be done on a weekend or keep the route of the parade off busy streets where people are conducting business. For Scott to jump out and cross the street during a break in the parade is not asking for to much. Do this stuff at a reasonable time or keep it off main streets.
