Dallas Gay Pride Parade (Dial-up Warning!)

[Scooter24]

Hey everyone. Just thought that I would share some pics from the recent gay pride parade in Dallas on 9/17/06. Despite the constant rain, a good time was had by all. This parade pales in comparison to those in cities like San Francisco and New York City, but we are a happy and close community. Enjoy!


Me and my best friend Nicole at our first vantage point before the parade.


Yes there was lots of beer! I think most of us got wasted... lol


Grand Marshall- Bruce Vilanche


PFLAG here and proud!


Lupe Valdez- Dallas' first out lesbian sheriff


Yes! More beer!


And of course, diet pepsi!


Stonewall Dems


Remembering Ann...


Lambda Legal to the rescue!


Remember to vote!


Jim Forester


Libertarians support gay rights!


Making me proud to be a young democrat!


Nothing significant, he's just hot! lol


Equal rights for all!


And finally, a message for all Texans...

2. Great pics! Thanks for sharing.

I remember a couple of years ago in S.W. Florida we were having horrible rainy weather! Ruined the whole day (almost). We took the old adage if life gives you lemons you make lemonade.

We had a free for all mud wrestling everyone joined in at at once. it was a blast!

3. Great pics!

Just out of curiousity...does the parade go down Cedar Springs Road? It looks so familiar (I used to live in Dallas).

Cool you had Bruce Vilanch as your Grand Marshal!

And that was a nice tribute to Ann Richards. She was a good friend of our community.

I'm glad you had a great time. :-)
