Do Americans know about Guido Fawkes? Are effigies of Catholics burned anywhere?

England not Baghdad!

I'm American, and I've been to a couple of Guy Fawkes nights in the UK, so I suppose some Yanks have heard of The Guy. Haven't been to any big-city bonfires, but I must say the small town of Bassingham, Lincolnshire has a nice (large!) bonfire coupled with good food and drinks stalls.

Fiery effigies of Catholics? Not familiar with that...most photos of flaming effigies I've seen in the last 30 years have depicted US presidents, which have all been Protestant since Kennedy was assassinated in 1963.
