Haters aside, I just watched it on the internet from work. Cool parade. Shaq's rap was funny, he is always able to get the crowd going. Mark Madsen had the best speech though, I have no idea what he was saying in Spanish, but it got the crowd going. He looked like a kid in a candy store up there. They showed him dancing when Shaq was rapping, it was hilarious. Chick Hearn is amazing, mid eighties and still sharp as a tack. He was cracking some good jokes up there as MC.
