re: Is the Krewe of Nyx the opposite of "Go Woke, Go Broke"?

The last year my wife rode before Covid, Nyx charged their members $15.00 to park their car to load the float.

What????

I would've told them to pound sand....Parked anyway...

The $85.00 payment for the required on float meal and a DJ system = a brown bag with goldfish, a shitty sandwich, members mark bottled water, and the dj system was wires hanging out of outlets….

That's usually done by the float lieutenant huh?

Was it the krewe who put that in...? Weird.

I ride in Endymion and we have "float dues" collected by the lieutenant, not by the krewe, for a sandwich and drinks, which included beer water and soft drinks, and pre meal at Dome where we get dressed.

And to top it off, the float Captain kept the money and didn’t pay the tractor driver after the parade.

I dunno, that sounds like total BS, If the drivers weren't paid, we would've heard about that...

I don't know if Nyx used Kern back then, but the drivers were usually paid by Blain Kern.
