Again, they had no idea, but they were just so supportive. When I got to the game after winning, they dumped water on me in a cold ice bath in 20 degree weather at Maryland, just to express their joy. It meant...

Heavy rain filled the brim of Donald Duck's hat in 1962, causing the character to tip over and dump 50 gallons of water on unamused onlookers. In 1971, rain fell so heavily that the balloon portion of the parade was cancelled. Sonic the Hedgehog broke an off-duty policeman's shoulder in 1993, but the worst accident came in 1997, when 43-mph winds blew The Cat in the Hat into a lamppost, causing...
