Zulu appears to be the problem.

Just call Latoya and explain it to her. She'll have a fix in by Monday.

Bro, my wife has about 30 coconuts on display in our house. I’m not saying white peoples don’t get lucky, but we quit going to Zulu once our kids got older bc some Zulu riders purposely snubbed white people.

It’s a pretty common well know thing
im not going to pretend like it's just another parade but to act like they don't throw anything to white people is silly. the old fricks on the first group of floats throw less, i'll give you that

Forget that. I want to hear about the Comus satanic rituals.

Rex used to start at 10am. Moved to 10:30 and things have been worse.

I caught some of the tail end of it after watching all of Rex on St. Charles near Napoleon and then driving downtown.


Rex was hauling arse this year. So did Thoth. The quickest I’ve ever seen both parades roll

There’s only 2 parades Uptown on Monday night


Correct Proteus and Orpheus. You are acting like being behind is not normal. Proteus is late every year and Orpheus has to be late waiting on them. There are plenty of times where Orpheus rolls into the Convention Center after 11:15.

St Charles, but when are you ever not wrong?

But they did have a big break from Magazine as well, so you saying they ran quickly this year when they almost didn't end til right before Bacchus started is even more funny.

The problem is Zulu is supposed to begin at 8:00-8:30 and they don’t even get to St Charles until 10-11


Expecting people of color to be on time is white supremacy

Zulu has a lot of walking groups, baby dolls, etc that stop and mingle with friends and family along the route and end up holding up the entire procession because people just stand in the street holding up the tractors.
