Rose Parade spectators, including 2 men and 2 women, walking down a residential street carrying blankets and folding chairs. The debris on the parkway suggests that the time is after the parade has finished.
It was reported that approximately 1,250,000 people watched the parade from the sidelines and stands, causing a traffic jam. It was managed by police officers and moved relatively quickly.
