Never drove a tractor pulling a float, but I've had quite a bit of experience driving a convertible hauling various politicians, beauty queens, etc. When you own a convertible, word gets around and every parade in the country calls you.
The most fun are the 6 and 8 year old junior beauty queens. People along the route usually "ooh" and "aah" over them. Plus they often have a good lookin' mother in short shorts ride along.
The worst are the late teen and early 20's beauty queens. During the course of every parade, you can always count on 4 to 6 half drunk young studs running out and trying to get the gal to take a swig out of their can of beer. I had one crawl all the way up on the trunk, once, trying to get the gal to take a drink. I twitched the throttle and dumped him on his butt in the street. Got a round of applause for it!
I once hauled Ms. Senior Nebraska through a parade. She was at least 90, and had a similar aged lady friend with her. I don't think they even knew where they were.
I don't own a convertible at the moment, but I often said it was more fun to drive through the parade and see all the people than it was to sit and watch the parade go past.
