LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) -It’s always fun to see someone get a surprise, like this week when two unsuspecting community leaders were bestowed the honors of Lord and Lady of Mardi Gras.
“By the authority vested in me, I have come to honor and name thee Lord Franklin Fondel of the 12th Night Royal Court,” announced the jester at the Mardi Gras Museum.
Lake Charles Deputy Police Chief Fondel was surprised to be named Lord.
