The Festival of Lights Parade is estimated by organizers to bring roughly 100,000 people annually to Palm Springs.

Rather than recycling standardized test questions, organizers paid leading math experts a few hundred dollars to concoct fiendishly difficult, original problems across a broad range of fields.

During a typically grueling marathon shoot, Maing recalls waking up from a quick nap to screams as the organizers’ tent was caught by a massive wind gust.

The parade supports the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, which every year distributes 18 million toys to 7 million children, according to a news release distributed by the parade’s organizers.

To celebrate the milestone, Erdmann and organizers constructed a wedding chapel where guests could tie the knot under the tagline “Born X Raised Marriages Last Forever, This Is Legally Binding.”
