A float entered by the Cal Poly universities has won the Tournament of Roses’ first-ever Viewers’ Choice Award, the tournament announced today.
"Seaside Amusement," which depicts a seaside amusement park, received 3,219 of the 10,618 votes cast via KTLA's website on New Year’s Day.
The float was entered by California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, and California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.
Like all of the floats from the 120th Rose Parade, "Seaside Amusement" is still on display in Pasadena.
