There is no relationship between the two. I quote from the web site below! "The Tournament of Roses is a tradition full of traditions, one of which is our Never on Sunday policy. In 1893, officials decided to move the parade to Monday, January 2 to avoid frightening horses tethered outside local churches and thus interfering with worship services. As a result of this reverent gesture, speculation abounds as to the rare instances of rainfall on New Year's Day (only nine times in Rose Parade history), prompting some to ask the Tournament about its special pact with a friend upstairs. Also as a result of this tradition, other collegiate bowl organizations have instituted similar procedures. The upcoming Rose Parade is on Monday, January 2, 2006 in observance of the Never on Sunday tradition. "

As for Halloween, my guess that it is set as the evening before All Saint's Day. Since that Holiday is always on November 1 no matter what day of the week it falls on, Halloween floats with it.

Because there's no need to avoid Sunday. The Rose Bowl keeps it as a silly tradition, but what would be the point in Halloween avoiding Sunday? Only the religiously fundamentalist would do so.
