The Krewe of Tucks makes for a rare triple-header for Lundi Gras



The Krewe of Tucks moved from Saturday night to today and offers parade fans a rare triple-header for Lundi Gras in New Orleans.  Mardi Gras Publisher Arthur Hardy says Tucks is a wild and crazy bunch and with the theme of ''Finding Culture,'' that's funny stuff.

''I mean my goodness, the king sits in a toilet seat float, how comfortable is that?''  chuckled Hardy.

Mardi Gras Publisher Arthur Hardy :


Hardy says Tucks started out in the 1960s as a bunch of frat boys in pick up trucks and boats, to become a major procession.

''Nobody has no more fun and having a great time sharing the party with the people who show up," Hardy said.
