This may sound weird but my mother watched the Rose bowl game and said that there was No announcer at all during the game. None. She said they didn't have the half time with a float or two featured either. She said a band all in black played music, but she didnt' know who they were?
I always loved watching the Rose Bowl game with the floats and fun commentary. I wonder if the station she watched was having trouble. I can't believe that everyone didn't have the audio?
Just wondering. BTW: She is 97 y/o and an avid football fan, both college and NFL

The Rose Bowl was one of ESPN's "Mega Casts" (whatever they call it). Depending on what channel she was watching:

ESPN: Main Telecast
ESPN2: Command Center (not sure what that shows)
ESPNU: Skycam (only the skycam I'm pretty sure)
SEC Network: Skycam w/hometown radio
Streaming: Marching Bands

I wonder if she was watching one of the "sub" feeds.

Yes, that sounds like what she did and didn't know it. She has extra sports channels but I have no idea what they are. I will tell her about that and that should make her feel better about it. Thanks

I hope you enjoyed the Rose Parade! The last two weeks have been non stop for me. I am on the board for the La Canada Flintridge float, and we have worked until 1 am the last two weeks with final preps and deco. Our float was the giant Mars Rover with the drone. We won the Innovators Award! I am also one of the "white suiters" tournament volunteers you see at the parade and post parade float viewing. I have been on my feet at the post parade 12 hours a day since the 1st, one final day today. I then assist moving our massive float from Pasadena High School this afternoon back to our float yard in La Canada. It has been exhausting but fun!

Thank you and congratulations!! We sure enjoyed all of yours and everyone that was involved's dedication to putting on a great show for us. Now it is time to put your feet up
