Wacky Races - Season 1 - Eps 14: Traffic Jambalaya
The Wacky Races crew takes on the Traffic Jambalaya, a chaotic race through the bustling, maze-like streets of New Orleans during Mardi Gras! With colorful floats, parades, jazz bands, and a sea of costumed revelers blocking the way, the racers must find creative (and often ridiculous) ways to navigate the gridlocked city. Dastardly Duke attempts to clear his path with a giant fan, only to send himself flying into a gumbo stand, while Miss Magnolia gracefully maneuvers through the madness without spilling her tea. As shortcuts through alleyways, rooftops, and even a steamboat fail spectacularly, it’s The Gator Brothers & The Bayou Bullet who unexpectedly take the win—thanks to a sneaky detour through the sewers!

Synopsis
Wacky Races is an animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera that originally aired in 1968. The show is a parody of traditional car races, featuring a variety of eccentric characters and their outlandish vehicles, all racing across different terrains in a madcap competition for first place. The series is centered around a group of 11 racers, each with their own unique vehicle and distinct personality. The main characters include Dick Dastardly and his dog Muttley, who are always trying to cheat and sabotage the other competitors, although they never succeed. Other notable racers include Penelope Pitstop, the glamorous but tough driver; the adventurous Red Max; and the lovable duo, the Slag Brothers, who drive a massive, rock-like car.
