The Intergalactic Krewe of Chewbacchus will be rolling during Mardi Gras for the first time this year providing sci-fi afficionados with an outlet in the Carnival festivities.

In homage to Star Wars, Peter Mayhew (the actor who played Chewbacca on the big screen) will be serving as King. The parade rolls Sunday March 6 starting from the Big Top (1638 Clio) and making its way through the CBD.
