re: Who else hates Mardi Gras?

this year i have won mardi gras. set up shop with 8-10 friends on the barricade in front of desi vega on st charles. free bathroom awesome "parade" food and plenty of space to sit back and hang out for the afternoon parades. got crowded for Endymion but still was able to keep our buffer zone with the ice chests and chairs. after its all done, walked 2 blocks drove down Barone and was home to metairie in less than 20 min.
