I only care about getting throws because the kids get so excited about it, but that said, Olympia was piss poor. Not even worth going as far as that but luckily had a good time with friends. The douchebags riding on the floats mostly looked like they didn't even want to be there.

frick the "Krewe" of Olympia.

That is all.

It is getting a little old with Phil Heath winning every year. I wonder if he'll get his 6th straight title this year?

It was only 18 floats and started early but still late and slow and many huge breaks in between. So in addition to the throws and people sucking, the logistics sucked as well.

Used to be that Eve sucked and Olympia was at least decent but that was reversed this year IMO.

My family and I enjoyed it. It is basically Eve moved to downtown Covington where I can make regular Tap Room runs. And, we enjoyed Eve a lot, too.

By FAR the worst drunken mess of a parade I have ever been too.

She's got one of these and is coming up on 85.

WTF do you expect her to be, Usain Bolt?

How many parades do you go to in a typical year? At post face value, seems like not many. Like by FAR...not many.

Thought this was going to be about ancient Greece. Thanks for the let down. You Louisiana hicks and your trashy mardi gras

We enjoyed it. But, we don't regularly go to parades. The kids had a good time. People around us were nice and respectful. As I don't regularly parade, what was it missing that you were expecting?

Just when I think Olympia can't be misconstrued in any other way...

Free per se, but the cost of aggravation sitting in traffic before and after and also opportunity cost, i.e., not going to a different parade or doing something else different. But like I said, was still good times with friends.

It has been that way for years. Eve is a much better parade. I wouldn't say Olympia sucked, my kids caught three Mardi Gras bags full of stuff. The crouds are single file for both of those parades where I stand.
