If I didn't ride with Zulu, I doubt I would bother to go.

Nothing but a bunch of drunk cigarette smoking white trash going fricking nuts over stupid parades that they get up way too early for.


This is laughably false.

Everything is trashy here. Are you new?

You’re a dumb frick with zero reading comprehension. I invite you to go back and read that thread again.

I don't have much close experience with Mardi Gras being from Protestant land. Thus I have nothing to hate about it.

However I bestowed an upvote upon you just because I know you're swimming way against the current to post this on a Louisiana message board.

Who the hell refers to a king cake as stuffed?
Yeah he's got it going on

Honestly, I got burnt out on it well before I moved away. Haven't missed it since I left. I'm much more about coming back to visit for things like French Quarter Fest or football games.

you’re triggered in your own thread where you’re trying to trigger people.

Used to be able to go skiing every year. Now work for a company who doesn’t even recognize the holiday so can’t even run away from it anymore

People who hate on things that other people enjoy boggle my mind.



This is a topic I never bring up because people get so bent out of shape if you don't agree that MG is awesome. Someone can ask about MG and you can say something as passive as, "It's not really my thing" and they will lose their minds 9/10. It's very weird. Point being, the door swings both ways. That intense reaction over a passive personal opinion boggles my mind.

Well, I have been in New Orleans for Mardi Gras, and the tits 4 beads bit is an accurate, and actual representation of the level of trashiness you can expect to find.




So you go hang out with the trash on Bourbon is what you are saying.
I ride on Sunday on the longer than normal route, most of which is uptown. In the last four years, I've seen two (2) sets of tits.

Pretty big difference between saying it's not really your thing vs you hate it and think it's the trashiest thing ever.
Compared to the way I experience mardi gras vs the other public events in this inbred state, I think mardi gras is ok.

It was a blast in 1985. Last time I went in 2003 was a disappointment. I don't watch the parades.

Went to ball few years ago, cost me around 1k and it sucked.

I would hate Mardi Gras too if I paid around $1000 for a boring ball.

I'm not the OP. I'm just saying my experience with this topic is very negative regardless of how you present your opinion. You can see in the other threads. Responses like GFY and you must be miserable and what a p_ssy. Just really unnecessarily extreme for disliking a regional holiday.

Let me guess

1. People from Nola can’t fathom why anyone hates it. And viscously defend it
2. People from BR and Lafayette think they love it, but really have no clue what it even is
3. Everyone else in La either passively tolerates it or despises it.

I like Thoth Sunday on Magazine Street. Friends, couple of beers, no crazy college kids like downtown. Mardi Gras day, usually go fishing.
