One of the big off-season Mardi Gras stories was about the miniature Krewe of ‘tit Rex, who were sued by Carnival kings the Krewe of Rex and changed their name to Krewe of ‘tit Rəx (with a schwa). In a nod to the lawsuit, the city’s only micro-Krewe held their fourth annual parade this past Saturday with the theme “Napoleon Avenue Complex.” The parade started at Bywater BBQ and ended with a presentation of the shoebox floats at Gallier Small (better known as the All-Ways Lounge). Egg Yolk Jubilee and the Panorama Brass Band (both featured in our February issue Backtalk interview with parading bands) provided musical accompaniment.
