NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Actor G.W. Bailey will share the spotlight Sunday as celebrity king of the Bacchus parade — one the biggest in the run-up to Mardi Gras — with more than two dozen child cancer patients from across the country.
When Bailey suits up in his Bacchus tunic and cape, 28 teens and children being treated for cancer will board a float and ready themselves for an hours-long ride through New Orleans, where they’ll toss Mardi Gras beads and trinkets to throngs of crowds well into the night.
