Krewe of Ragnarok Toast – Fat Tuesday 2018

One of the best Fat Tuesday toasts ever, it just came out right. This was a legacy toast basically designed to commemorate the many years of Ragnarok’s contributions to Mardi Gras day via some of the boldest and most inspiring creations to roll through the streets. They truly “won” Mardi Gras a few years. So to honor that, we raised 160 ounces of Olde English to them, Hail Ragnarok!

Beautiful lovers! Glorious souls! Let us here, now, recognize this moment and give spirited thanks to the animated and intrepid Krewe of Ragnarok! A krewe never reticent, nver recusant, never shying from the compelling light of revelry you see all around you today. For eight, great, years, this krewe has marched, built, toiled, inspired, and raged their way through the streets of New Orleans, creating a myriad of memories for themselves, but more importantly, for all of us! As we gazed upon their monumental creations – zeppelins, spaceships, horses – easing down the street with a glitter and grandeur that made even the most seasoned or jaded Mardi Gras revelers clutch their loved ones and say “Look at that!” LOOK at that!” For those and so many more memories, and on behalf of the Deurty Boys Gallery, myself and Jeremy Hebert, … We toast your beautiful fucking souls! Hail Ragnarok! Hail Ragnarok! Hail Ragnarok!”

Many thanks to Sam Stratton for the capture…
