God Save The Queen – Or In This Case, Duchess Bristol Cuz She’s A MESS!!! – Krewe of Atlas Royalty Revealed! (PICS)
In their traditional, non-traditional way, the Krewe of Atlas revealed their royalty for the upcoming 2012 Mardi Gras season with much fun and frivolity Saturday night at the American Legion in Shreveport. The Krewe of Atlas, known for it's diversity, hosted the Island of Shipwrecked Fools themed Coronation, where yours truly was crowned the Duchess of Lagniappe IV along hubby Keith, who isn't a duchess of course, he's the Duke of Lagniappe IV... Even though he looks quite nice in eyeliner! Big congrats to the outgoing and previous royalty for their successful reigns! I've also got to shout out the decorating committee! The Legion looked great and the food was fantastic! The new royalty leading the Krewe in to the 2012 Mardi Gras season are as follows:

Queen: Ruth Grafton
Duke and Duchess of Creme de la Creme: John David Hebert and Delores Brown
