The float will stand 55 feet tall and feature âa cake-toting Pac-Man surrounded by presents,â plus the ghosts. The Rose parade begins at 11 a.m. EST on New Yearâs Day, and will broadcast on ABC, HGTV and three other networks.
Gamasutra points out that Sonic was previously the first game character to get a float in a major parade, in Macyâs 1993 Thanksgiving spectacular.
