Another great Mr. Legs was held on Saturday, July 11, 2026 at Generations Hall with emcees Mike Hoss and Laura Buchtel. Celebrity Judges Lily Cummings (WWL-TV), Malik Mingo (WWL-TV), and Lizzy Ursin (The Pussyfooters) scrutinized the costumes, routines, and – most importantly – legs of the Contestants, while performances by The Pussyfooters entertained the crowd before Contestant performances and during intermission.
Also, back again, was the Oscar J. Tolmas Charitable Trust returning as Presenting Sponsor and WWL-TV returning as Media Sponsor. Special thanks to Copeland’s Restaurants (and the entire Copeland’s family), CoolBrew Coffee, and Nirvana Indian Cuisine.
