Do they even close work and schools in Mobile on Mardi Gras day?


Yes. Some schools are closed the whole week.

So sorry to offend you and your big party, Opie. Please promise you’ll stay in Mobile for MG. I’ve already promised to stay in NO.


Nobody is offended. Nobody really gives a shite honestly. I’ve been to both. Had fun at both. Your post is silly.

Parades on the eastern shore are better than the ones in Mobile anyway

Whoa, y’all so crazy in Mobile. What about the rest of the State?

What other cities in Alabama celebrate Mardi Gras?

Fair enough. Like I said, I don't give a shite where it started and I really don't give a shite about Mardi Gras in general...



Of course the billboard in the OP made the local news and the gumps they interviewed downtown Mobile were so happy to see it

Its great marketing as I have seen multiple articles about this already today.

It's funny, but I don't think any new people are heading to Mobile because of the sign or for their Mardi Gras.

Mobile was in French Louisiana, not Alabama, at the time of the first Mardi Gras.

Houston and Galveston also have a “Mardi Gras”. But no one considers them nor Mobile actual Mardi Gras. Let them have their crowning achievement if they so desperately want it

The thing is no one here gives a frick. We think the whole had it first thing is dumb. But the city seems desperate to bring in more people from out of town for Mardi Gras. Personally I’d rather them not.

So the families who own the multimillion dollar, historic mansions on St Charles Avenue and Audubon Place are secretly poor wannabes? Very interesting.


You have my reply backwards.
