These silent outtakes capture a crawfish race during the Texas Folklife Festival in San Antonio.  Emcee AJ Judice, wearing a black beret, hypes the crowd as Jim Braud and Buddy Porter, wearing red berets, prepare the racers supplied by Catfish Acres in Winnie, Texas. On the whistle, the basket is lifted and the crawfish begin crawling. First crustacean to reach the outermost circle wins! Held annually by the Institute of Texan Cultures since 1972, the Texas Folklife Festival celebrates the state’s diverse ethnic heritage through food, music, dance, and the arts.
