Inspectors make sure that everything on the float abides to Tournament of Roses rules, which is a large checklist of requirements. These range from having the correct length of float, having a reasonable overweight and overheight, to making sure that the float can perform a complete shutdown in 30 seconds. Many of the mechanics need to be completed by this date, so it is a very important date for us to meet to be able to drive down Colorado Blvd. on January 1st.
