Mummers Parade
I grew up in Philadelphia so I am well acquainted with the Mummers. I can remember as a child waking up early, having my Mom bundle me up with layers, and taking the Broad Street Subway into the city to see the parade. After a few years of cold and wind my mom decided to watch the Mummers on TV the easy way.

Mummer is from the old french
momer meaning to wear a mask
or a costumed merrymaker.
