Marilyn Bishop of Veazie said she came to the parade to show her support for the Shriners’ work, but she almost had her purse snatched. One group in the parade was made up of men dressed as early 19th century police officers with night sticks who tried to corral several “prisoners” dressed in black-and-white striped jail outfits.
Suddenly, one of the mock prisoners “escaped” from his jailer and made a beeline for Bishop’s pocketbook, sitting on the sidewalk next to her folding chair. Just as the “criminal” reached to snatch it, she pulled it into her chair and the officer shooed his prisoner back into the parade line.“I knew what he was going to do from other events I’ve been to,” she said. “I just played along. I was smiling at him.”

My step-granddad was a Shriner. He loved that fez.
And if you've never been to a funeral conducted by Masons, you're missing out (unless you rent the Lion King.)

You'd think a Shriner funeral would be a cremation ceremony.
