The narrative on fox that people were slowly finding out was so stupid.

Just saw on WWL that an Endmyion rider was throwing fake dollar bills and people crowded the area and he got pushed down



I thought in twitter video I saw someone in-between the beds looking towards first float while walking towards camera side around 17 to 18 seconds and then right front corner of second float him ran over while he was still looking to his left (camera's right but really hard to tell if his face was looking to his left as its pixels). if the person he didn't appear to be knocked down by people or looking on ground for money unless that's why he went in between them.
Initially I kept seeing those kids and that room to move around a lot and feared it was one of them.

I have zero faith in this administration to make a reasoned thought out resonance to this.

Banning tandem floats now? How long have they been using them without incident? I hate knee jerk reactions.

No matter where a major event happens, there is always someone from Tigerdroppings on the scene. It’s gotta be the world’s best new organization. Basically CNN.

It is remarkable that it doesn't happen more often.
I was at Iris earlier today and told this exact quote to some tourist from Seattle that asked about what happened the other night at Nyx. The barricades definitely compress the crowds to the point of danger and I am glad we passed on Endymion

The parade we ride in has mandatory walkers at every axel and every corner of the float and truck. So 12 walkers per float. Every year I grab a kid by the collar and stop them from diving under the float.

There are zero walkers for these big floats right?

Don’t compare this glorious sight to CNN. They are trash compared to TD.

TD also broke the news before any major Nola outlet.

I’m shocked if that’s the case but from everything I’ve seen, they don’t have walkers.

It’s not like Baton Rouge St Pattys. They have to cruise at high speeds at some points.

Video not only had no barricades but was also very sparsely crowded.

Anyone see the interview of the woman who basically said it sucks someone died but now her night is ruined?
