El Paso, TX, native Gene Roddenberry was honored with a Star Trek float yesterday in the city’s 72nd annual Sun Bowl Parade.
The float consisted of a 12-foot USS Enterprise, the popular, easily recognizable starship from the 1960s television show that late Roddenberry created.
The float, dubbed “Star Trek: A Tribute to Gene Roddenberry,” was created by the Downtown Lions Club of El Paso.
