Dude, the Bacchus Rendezvous is open to the public...



Nope. Purchased through members at $315 a pop. Unless you can buy them somewhere I don't know of.

Maybe you can win tickets...

And where do you think people get tickets for the Extravaganza..?

A local company having 2 tickets to give away doesn't mean it's open to the public

I never said anything about Endymion tickets

I just said Bacchus is definitely not open to the public.

They raised prices this year because they added food and drink. Used to just cater in and they had breakfast at the end. Now it's all you can eat and drink so no one has to bring ice chests and caterers in.

Dorothy Mae Taylor. Plus, a lot of riders in Comus also rode earlier in the day for Rex. Comus always sucked as a parade.

Most of the riders in Druids are members of Comus.

dear old Dorothy Mae was a right effing cow!!!!

glass, you and I actually agree on something related to Comus...their parade totally sucked!!!

I think you'd have to come up with a special sort of krewe to ride on Tuesday night...one of my big problems with Comus was they never had marching units

They tried a few years back during the Dorothy Mae Taylor days with a Krewe of America or something like that... It was a total failure..

To be fair, most of Comus riders had also ridden in Momus on Thursday, Proteus on Monday night and Rex on Tuesday morning. Those frickers were worn out.

Watched the last Comus parade go by from a booth in the Hummingbird Grill. Sort of a wonderful drunken hazed surreal memory.

I had a guy on my float in Endymion... He was a float lieutenant in Caesar in Metairie, he rode in Endymion, and was a float lieutenant in Bacchus... I don't know how the hell the guy did it...

I'm wiped out for a week after Endymion....

I'm so glad I don't have a daughter.

My brother in law rides in D'etat, Proteus and Rex. He is a machine.

my old float chassis (FINALLY replaced this year, YAY) originally belonged to the Krewe of America...

we have a couple of guys who ride with us who go to the Zulu ball on Friday night and ride Endymion on Saturday...

like others have talked about being worn out...Sunday night, I'm fried...

the friendship and comradeship of the men I ride with in Endymion has become very special to me...and I always come back with a good story or two...
