There would be no more bead litter, and instead of millions being sent to Chicom for junk beads, most of that money would stay in the local economy. As an added bonus, the fights among drunk adults for the cash would be epic. Cups can stay.


Throwing dollar bills would be cheaper than throwing beads as well.

I've seen how the trash and hoodrats act for plastic cups. How you think they're going to act with cash? That is the dumbest fricking idea I've ever heard. And they clean up the trash every night so what's the fricking problem?

I had an idea this year that for every big or late-in-the-evening parade, the last float should throw exclusively small snacks, juice boxes, and individual packs of ibuprofen

Irish/Italian parades do it right. Looking forward to loading up on produce in a couple weeks.
