 What is C.R.U.D.E.?

The Krewe of C.R.U.D.E. is one of 16-1/2 sub-krewes of the world famous Krewe du Vieux


We are dedicated to insuring that CRUDE behavior, CRUDE displays, and CRUDE humor
are forever a part of Mardi Gras in New Orleans.
(remove hand from crotch)

Krewe of C.R.U.D.E. and Krewe du Vieux preserve the historical spirit of Mardi Gras by parading through the French Quarter with mule-drawn floats and featuring the finest traditional New Orleans brass bands.

TV LISTINGS

 

Faux News Network – Saturday, January 30.  7:00 P.M./6:00 Central

 

The New Orleans Liar’s Club Presents

 

Mayor C. Ray Nagin’s Farewell Roast . . . in Hell!

 

America’s Vagina Friendly mayor gets literally skewered by the acid-tongued comedy of such D-List stars as Bob Saget, Joan Rivers, Kathy Griffin and Dr. Ed Blakely.  Roastmaster Jim Letten will recount outlandish but true stories of the Clown Prince of Chocolate City’s hilarious misadventures as he looks for ways to learn city management from his new pals Rafael Castro and Kim Jong-Il. 


Banqueters will dine on Louisiana Chef Paul Prudpig’s specially prepared Cochon de Ray, Crawfish Veronica, Oysters Meffert, and Frozen Peas a la Jefferson.  Rated “R” for CRUDE behavior and nudity.


Jim Letten may have the final say but here's our final opportunity to light a fire under Hizzoner's ass, roast some nuts and serve up some Cochon de Ray.
