Holding a parade indoors? Why, that's crazy talk.

Unless you plan on holding it in one of the largest casinos in the world. Which brings us to: the Veterans Day Parade at Foxwoods Resort Casino.

Yup, Foxwoods is staging a whole parade inside its walls, starting and ending at the Grand Pequot Tower's

Grand Ballroom. In between, it'll wind its way around the site, taking about 45 minutes for the whole shebang.

Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Council Chairman Rodney Butler kicks things off with welcoming remarks. Local veterans and high school bands are among those expected to participate in the parade itself, with the Mashantucket Pequot Color Guard leading the way.
