King Mango Strut is today!

[Tuesday_Morning]

Best parade in the world. :bounce:

Our theme this year is One Disaster After Another, and with the year we had, we need all the comic relief we can get! This year’s Grand Marshal is none other than former Miami Herald columnist and Miami New Times writer, Jim Defede. He will lead the parade. While there have been controversies with other parades across the nation, the King Mango Strut is an equal opportunity offender. There is something to offend everybody.

Watch this past year’s headlines come to life - where no one is safe from satire:

Celebrate Muddy Gras with our own New Orleans style Funeral Band
Learn the latest dance craze, the No Electric Slide
Visit the FEMA – Failure to Effectively Manage Anything – laughter distribution center, yes, you will laugh at what they give you
Witness a house float by all the way from the ninth ward in New Orleans
Be amazed at what really come up from the Miami River dredging!
Play the new game: Tom Delay’s, “Wheel of Indictment”
See the new school board’s show slot machines, “Viva Las Escuelas”
Enjoy the latest hits from the Post Andrew Sisters, featuring Big Daddy Blowhard
Ride the Bi-Polar Express
And if that weren’t enough for a sick mind… avian flu, pythons, Katrina, Rita, Wilma, blue tarps, looters, penguins, fingers, condo flippers, diploma mills, Terri Schiavo, Michael Jackson, the UBD Line, and !

And as always - the usual suspects... The Hare Krishnas, The Marching Freds, Progressive Marching Funeral Band, Coconut Grove’s Token Politician, Coconut Grove Jugglers Exchange, The Running of the Bullshitters, The Red Hat Society, the Little Miss Mangoes and the former Miss Mangoes (Miss Judged, Miss Demeanor, Miss Aligned, Miss Appropriate, etc...)
