The 610 Stompers — ordinary men with extraordinary moves — have become a parade favorite here in New Orleans and in the Macy’s Day Parade in New York.And now they are showing you how to become a Virtual 610 Stomper. Chief dancing officer Brett “Slab” Patron demonstrates some of the group’s moves for people who want to be a part of the Virtual 610 Stomper fundraiser to benefit ALS and Team Gleason. “We would love to raise $100,000, but this is our first year,” said Patron said. “And we are just trying to get as many people involved as possible.” Steve Gleason is the former Saints special team standout who suffers from ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s Disease, the terminal disease that damages nerves controlling voluntary muscle movement. He organized Team Gleason to raise public awareness about ALS.
