This may be the most “different” parade that I’ve ever attended.
Mansfield Texas is home to Best Maid Pickles. From pickles to the Pickle Queens, this town parade has a little bit of everything (except the town band) that’s green and related to pickles. It’s a great way to incorporate leprechauns and pickles! Let’s take a glance!
The parade, had some consisted of some interesting folks…
In Mansfield, they like beer with their Bible study. Hey, it’s a good attraction!
Big pickles!
Also big wheels…
“Whambulance” – it cracks me up!
Let’s not forget the Pickle Queens!
Seriously, check out those boots!
The Mayor (or man running for Mayor) has the best gifts… helmets for the kids! Talk about swinging the vote!
And my ultimate favorite… how about this for a potato slicer?! Yes, it’s a drill…
I think it’s safe to say, I saw a little bit of everything at this one. Who would’ve known, the pickle capital was right in our backyard?!
That looks so fun and it looks sorta kinda close to Dallas! We may need to plan a roadtrip
Definitely close enough to Dallas! It was a lot of random fun!
That monster truck ambulance is awesome and the Pickle Queens made me giggle!
Oh, me too! When I was there, it was something to see but looking back over the pictures, it made me laugh as well!
Great pictures!!! I love pickles. Have you ever been to a BBQ restaurant named “Famous Daves”? There used to be one in Abilene but it recently closed. Anyhow they have these pickles that are sweet and spicy and amazing! Well, we were shopping at Costco last weekend and they sell jars of them! We were so excited.
I never liked pickles until recently so it’s kind of funny. They have to be super crispy though! Like the bread and butter ones are the best (or whatever they’re called). Yum! I’ll have to keep an eye out for anything “Famous Daves”. Thanks!
We have Famous Dave’s here in Michigan, I think it’s a chain. Never been but I love pickles so maybe I will check it out!
Go check it out! Go on an adventure (then tell us all about it)! 😉
Maybe I will 🙂 I think there are a few near me. Detroit has some really good BBQ place it’s famous for, like Slows, too, that I haven’t been to yet.
