A local New Orleans TV news reporter interviewed former Worldcon chair John Guidry  for a January 6 feature about the Phunny Phorty Phellows street car ride that kicks off the annual Mardi Gras carnival season.

At the risk of betraying John’s secret identity, you may find it helpful to know he is the one attired as a chef and wearing a yellow Lone Ranger mask.

While riding the St. Charles street car the Phellows sipped champagne, ate King Cake, and let fly the first beads of the Mardi Gras season. They turned back at Canal, then got off at the Willow Street Car Barn to attend the Coronation Ball for their newest Queen and Boss Phellow.
