Mobile is honestly superior to New Orleans in most things. Better seafood, more authentic Mardi Gras, etc. Even the Saints fans in Mobile are more tolerable.


Whatever makes you feel better about your life choice man.

I thought the real Mardi Gras was in Monroe?

I'm looking forward to not having to navigate around a bunch of ladders in the neutral areas.

Its the real deal in NOLA. We party by Hunger Games rules.

Mobile is for pussies. Have fun, girls.

Well friends, it looks like my boasting may have come to bite me in the arse. Kid came home from school with a fever today. Going for the flu test tomorrow morning. Looks like no real Mardi Gras for the Spleen family this year. Maybe next year.

You may be right. I haven't been to Mobile in probably 15 years, and I've only ever been there 3 times in my entire life.

Never been to Mardi Gras there.

Some good restaurants along the causeway.

The Blind Mule made a pretty good burger.

Going to the Joe Mann parade on the 23rd of Feb in Mobile. Never been, always New Orleans. Trying something new.

They have the tunnel to frick traffic up instead of a bridge. Much cooler.
