Im from South Louisiana and proud of it. We have a event down here ever year called MARDI GRAS. During this time we have alots of parades filled with colorful floats. People dress up in the Mardi Gras colors Purple, Green and Yellow or Gold. People in the parades are throwing alots of breads, tshirt, and many others thing to people along the side of the street.
I grow around this which i enjoyed. People outside Louisiana think Mardi Grad is just celebrate in New Orleans. Its not true. Its mostly through out the whole state. One thing i like is that we got three days from school. A monday, Fat Tuesday, and Ash Wednesday.
In the last few years i have not looking foward to Mardi Gras anymore. I have notice that Mardi Gras has become a excused for alot of people from here and out of town to drink and get drunk and act stupid.
I know we love to drink in this Louisiana and Mardi Gras is great time of year. Its must be something in the air or the water that make good and hardworking people turn into drunken fools.
To anyone who wants to visit your state and experience Mardi Gras first hand its really fun. Just beware of drunken people who act like fools.
