I'm not a fan of calling in sick unless you're really sick (and I don't mean of traffic). So I'd suggest asking your boss for a vacation day a few days in advance.

If this is a fairly rare occurence for you, then see about taking a vacation or personal day. Call out sick if that's your only other recourse, but I wouldn't cause yourself all the hassle and strife. And go to the parade! Clap and laugh and dance and have fun! Hey, if you're going to miss work because of it, you might as well enjoy it!
