Mardi Gras parades would be better if the riders threw cash instead of beads

There would be no more bead litter, and instead of millions being sent to Chicom for junk beads, most of that money would stay in the local economy. As an added bonus, the fights among drunk adults for the cash would be epic. Cups can stay.

No way that turns bad.

Sounds fun until you catch a roll of quarters to the side of the head.

The floats wouldn’t even make it off Tchoup to Napoleon before being robbed.

MOON PIE

I was riding in Mobile for a group there years ago. We turned on the street near the beginning with all the bars (I think Conception? Not sure).
Anyway, I am tossing my throws and air out a Moon Pie that somehow travels into one of the bars, weaves it way through the crowd without hitting anyone, and makes contact with the solar plexus of a bartender behind the bar in the back of the room. I see her double over after impact but there is nothing that I can do from the top of a moving float. And why I watched that particular pie the entire time I have no idea.

Would be hilarious, just get a money gun and fill it with one dollar bills and start spraying.

I remember one year. Popeyes sponsored some krewes to throw special Popeyes doubloons for Mardi Gras for a free two piece dinner. The float leaders hated it for bringing too much “commercialism” into Mardi Gras.
Then you have a few other incidents where the no fun police get offended like for the Barbie issue. One year a Houma float rider bought some old rap cassettes singles in the mid 2000’s, unfortunately one of the tracks was N—-s Die Young. And then another time, a Krewe got in trouble for throwing dog biscuits and dog food.
I heard this year someone was throwing flat panel TV’s on one Krewe. But some of the craziest items have to be kitchen appliances. I remember one year catching a hand mixer back when Walmart had 4 dollar mixers, blenders, can openers, etc. on Black Friday.

A guy on the top of the float I was riding on in Endymion threw about $5k while we were riding down Carrollton. When we saw it flutter down we thought it was fake at first till we picked some up that landed on the bottom. Made a cool $58 bucks that ride.

Teller must have thought he was crazy. I need 4,999 in singles to stay under the withdrawal limit.
Plot twist he probably works for a bank and did the ordering himself.

We were on a balcony one year and one of the guys I was with got hammered, ran out of beads, and started tossing dollar bills. Cops made him stop.
Nothing exciting happened other than titties and cops. Typical Mardi Gras shite.
