Krewe d’Etat took aim at local and national satire this year. The theme was “The Dic Goes to Mardi Gras.” This krewe is led by a Dictator instead of a king. From headlines here at home to across the country, the Krewe targeted it all this year.
Morpheus, in its 20 year rolling, was themed ““Morpheus Dreams of Aquatic Adventures.”
