Yesterday 3,000 real and honorary Detroiters put on costumes and got drunk at the Masonic Temple for Theatre Bizarre: Spring Edition. The Detroit News reports that this year's Marche du Nain Rouge, a symbolic banishment of the evil red dwarf rumored to appear as a harbinger of doom before every major disaster in Detroit, was "like Halloween met Mardi Gras." With the red devil effectively banished, Detroit can look forward to new beginnings. In other news, Detroit Mayor Dave Bing is in the hospital recovering from surgery. Coincidence? [Detroit News]
