Field Report: 2019 ‘Tit Rex Parade in New Orleans
New Orleans ‘tit Rex parade hearkens back to old timey walking parades that different neighborhoods in our city used to enjoy before the politicos decided it would be easier to control the crowds if they just had all the krewes line up and roll down St Charles Avenue.
‘tit Rex’s floats are tiny. The makers keep them shoebox-sized but the creativity is as big as the egos of the so called Super Krewe captains. The artisans who create these miniatures have every bit as much talent as the krewes that spend tens of thousands of dollars on their mega-floats.
