In honor of Bastille Day, New Orleans will join cities around the world in hosting a waiters race, a tradition started in Paris in the early 20th century to recognize the waitstaff profession.

Come cheer on 25 local waiters as they compete for prizes by speedwalking with trays of water down Decatur Street!!!
