re: How does one go about joining a Mardi Gras Krewe?

I'll sell you my spot in Thoth for 3k

I have a friend who has ridden for a few years. He acts like his is important in the organization, but when I've asked him to get me in, he's told me the following:

1) Thoth is not expanding

2) Every float is completely full

3) Only way to get on a float is if someone drops out

4) The decision of who gets that spot is made solely and completely by the float lieutenant, so unless you are tight with them, average members can never get their friends and family in

So to those of you who ride in Thoth, Just curious if this is legit or if he's just being a douche.
