I'll be glad when Mardi Gras is over so I don't have to hear about all the victims anymore.

Exactly. I think parades are cleaner now than when I was a kid.

I remember catching a poster of a topless woman at the New Roads parade as a 10-year-old. There were no complaints! But my parents did take it away from me as I showed everyone my prize

FTR I’m not taking the FB outrage mob’s side here, but isn’t it reasonable to expect Covington to be a little cleaner and. More family friendly? Honest question as I didn’t grow up going to parades

I've never been to a Covington parade but have been to parades in dozens of other towns. And typically the smaller town parades usually reflect the town a little more. But to expect a Disneyland atmosphere for your 7yo at any parade not specifically designed as 'family gras' is just low IQ

Some of my fondest memories as a 10 year old is chasing the float throwing jello shots while having boob beads around my neck and wearing purple, gold, green panties like a beanie cap.

That was last week

So Spanish Town?


I have never seen this at a Spanishtown
I have ridden for the past 5 years & attended parade before that
There is plenty of risqué attire but I’ve never come across anyone throwing dildos
Not saying I don’t believe you because someone told me about it happening last year, my float is a lot of older people tho

About 18 years ago the February edition of the Baton Rouge Fun magazine or whatever it’s called had a picture of a Spanish town rider as its cover. The man had on a flamingo hat. What the magazine didn’t notice is the flamingo had a big pink penis.

Someone brought these on our float last year. They're basically stress balls and pretty funny. AKA not really a big deal. This outrage is absurd.

One of the funniest things I remember from Spanish Town was a float throwing real chicken feet that were painted pink and all the people picking them up and shoving them in their pockets like they were some sort of treasure. I guess they thought they were plastic.
