What other city can put 100 floats in procession on a Tuesday starting at rush hour?

Hail Carrolton.

All hail Queen Mia and Carrollton. I’m ready to roll I know there’s a few fellow posters that ride as well.

I think it will be the opposite of lit. Most of the floats don’t have lights or even the wiring for lights.

ETA - don’t know about Carrollton itself and lights but other krewes dont. Hope you guys have a good ride.

My sauces say otherwise. They rent their floats to night parades.

Arthur rents all of their floats.

Teedy will have fatale glowing.

If you’re going to meet anyone on Facebook Marketplace, do it in the parking lot of your nearest police station.

Carrolton has the ability for lights. We have guys at the den right now running the lights and all floats should be lit up tomorrow night.

I’d rather go to a Slidell or Mandeville parade than that shitshow tomorrow night.

Sacred heart has not sent an email asking for volunteers. So maybe open, but probably not.

Have you been to Hermes in the last decade? They don’t hold a candle to Proteus and it isn’t even close.

I was wondering about lights for Carrollton and FF. FF rents so more than likely has the capability to light but Carrollton owns its floats and I can’t recall it they have lighting. It can’t be easy as a generator needs to be installed along with the lights - I guess you could get by with a few flood light fixtures. Also, IIRC, not long ago the city instituted the need for a certified electrical inspection for any float with electricity.
