The irreverent Krewe of Tucks exposes what promises to be revisionist history. Float titles include “The British are Coming,” “Spanish Fly,” “Storyville” and “New Orleans Gets Balls.” Lee Zurik serves as grand marshal. The krewe distributes 7,000 toilet brush scepters hand decorated by members and students from Magnolia Special School and Holy Rosary Academy.
