Last week, we told you all about the Vaudevillains Mummers brigade's "Philly Phood Phantasia" New Year's Day performance. Here's a clip of the troupe in action on Broad Street Jan. 1.

Apparently, one of the pizza slices in the clip is none other than Daily News gossip columnist Dan Gross. "I�ve known [co-captain] Hillary [Rea] and a few of the other Vaudevillains for a long time and loved their performances the last two years," Gross tells Meal Ticket. When Rea sent out a note welcoming new members to the troupe, Gross and his wife Holly � she was also a slice � jumped at the chance. "It was awesome," Gross adds. "Can't wait for next year."

This was by far my favorite performance in the parade. So original.
