We used to take the kids to parades some when they were younger. We haven't been to any in years though. Just not my scene at this point in life.

Sitting on my balcony watching people walk back to their card to do some serious drunk driving. A tradition unlike any other

Agreed. But the OT is full of people who have spent a sum total of three days in New Orleans in their lifetime who will respond with "Shithole!" and poo poo your sentiment.

Nola is a shite hole.
Mardi gras is fun.

Both can exist.

You really miss seeing them parade around little boys in wigs and dresses that much? I think they broadcast that boring shite on TV still if you miss it that much.

Did you post this because you can spit on people's food and they won't care because they are drunk?

Your description is what it used to be. It hasn’t been that since 1995 if not earlier

Spent today at Spanish Town in Baton Rouge. Was a damned good time.
Tomorrow and Tuesday we will be going down to St Charles @ Julia with my two youngest kids for all da parades.

Mardi Gras is a special time and New Orleans is a special place. Can't wait for tomorrow.

The OT is full of judgey frickin faqqots.
