    January 2, 2012, the Rose Bowl parade was held today without what feature in the parade for the first time in 58 years?

    Question #124612. Asked by star_gazer. (Jan 02 12 8:56 PM)

    		Clydesdale horses

    This year's parade featured Iraq war veteran J.R. Martinez as grand marshal, the children and grandchildren of Roy Rogers on a float commemorating cowboys, and the parents of Christina-Taylor Green, the 9-year-old girl killed in the mass shooting that injured U.S. Rep Gabrielle Giffords last year, on the Donate Life float honoring organ donors. The Greens donated their daughter's corneas.

    The 2012 parade was the first in 58 years without the famed Anheuser-Busch Clydesdale horses after the company withdrew in a change of marketing strategy.
