What's your favorite float you've ever seen? It can be a signature float or one that only road one year you just remember really well. I think mine has to be the Bacchagator before they put the mesh around it's mouth and by the end of the ride it just had beads absolutely pouring out of the mouth. That and the size of it was just crazy to me the first time I went to Mardi Gras in 2014.

Signature...


Most of the riders on that float are from Baton Rouge.. They call them the Baton Rouge Yats

But this one with Roger Goodell took the cake..

I was at the Bacchus open house and the Kong float was SUBSTANTIALLY different this year. I don't know what happened to the one they've had for like 30 years (hopefully not destroyed) but the new one has an entire back to it now. So it's essentially a normal double decker float with a Kong on the front of it.
