"Parades
[0107]The Main Street has one room dedicated for signing up for the parades (Parades pre-show room). The room is accessible by 25 users total. When a parade is not in effect, live floats, which are part of the parade, are in the room. Each float has room for five users who can climb on board. The first user to mount the float is on the driver's seat. An area in predetermined screens is reserved for the parade during the parade time. The avatars that are in that screen automatically walk out of the reserved area when the parade is set to start. When the parade starts, the floats move out to Main Street and slowly move through parade route. As the floats go over the edges of each screen they are moving through, they appear on the next screen. Once the floats go over the edge of the last screen, they appear back in the parade's pre-show room. " the link is http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20080221998 and is a very interesting read
