A soaking April shower last Saturday didn’t stop Ocean City’s Doo Dah Parade from starting on time. Each year, the annual tribute to humor welcomes hundreds of basset hounds, many dressed in creative costumes, and this year was no different. The pups won the hearts of all who watched along Asbury Ave. and the Boardwalk.

Former Phillies pitcher Tommy Greene led the festivities as Grand Marshal. He posted a 16-4 record during the team’s run to the World Series un 1993 and played for the Braves and Astros during his baseball career. Greene has recently served as post-game analyst for Phillies TV broadcasts.
