From Wikipedia:
The Intergalactic Krewe of Chewbacchus is a science fiction–themed Mardi Gras krewe, religious and parade organization, that also features fantasy and horror groups, among other fandoms.[1] Based in New Orleans, Louisiana, as of the 2019 parade, the Intergalactic Krewe of Chewbacchus has over 2500 dues-paying members[2] who call themselves "ChewbacchanALIENs" or "Chewbs."[citation needed]
It describes its mission as "to save the galaxy by bringing the magical revelry of Mardi Gras to the poor, disenfranchised, socially awkward and generally weird masses who may have never had the opportunity to participate in a Mardi Gras Parade Organization," and aims to "elevate all aspects of Fandom and celebrate Carnival in our own unique way." In short, "saving the galaxy, one drunken nerd at a time!" [3]
History
The group was founded by Ryan S Ballard and Kirah Haubrich in the fall of 2010 when the two were at The Saturn Bar.[4] They were soon joined by local attorney Brett Powers, and together they comprise the original three "Overlords" of the Krewe. Chewbacchus marched for the first time during Mardi Gras 2011 near the Uptown parade route on "Bacchus" Sunday as a satiric mashup of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine, and Chewbacca, the Wookiee from Star Wars.[5]
