Those distasteful darlings of  derring-do were billed as the top act for the Peach Festival Parade
according to the local newspaper, the Gaffney Ledger.  In an article in the Wednesday, July 10 edition,
the queens dominate the front of the Lifestyle section with a tell-all exposé and photo.
While being called tacky and outrageous, the queens admit that satisfying the adoring public
is what it's all about. If tacky and outrageous is what they want-- they shall have it!

The legendary "Death-Defying Float Ride" terrorizes the neighborhood on the way
 to the Gaffney "Yellow Mall"! LtoR:TeanaJerri, Princess Betsy,
TeanaJanice, BSTQ, TeanaLisa, QueenBea, and the Spare.

security stud, Darren Schaefer. Queens love a man with a badge!

The Sweet Tea Queens of Spartanburg brought a flavor of Mardi Gras to the proceedings, throwing out beaded necklaces to scurrying children.
