If you have never seen the fun and insanity that is Mardi Gras, I feel for you. It is a true celebration of life and all the things that are good about man. Where else do thousands of people show up and anonymously give out $100,000 worth of fun?
Many believed that Mardi Gras would suffer greatly from the recession that is sweeping the world, but parade goers bucked the trend to party and celebrate life. In fact, in a recent CNN article, Marnie Hunter interviewed a lot of people from New Orleans and discovered that revenue was up from last year. This just proves that no matter what the situation, the human soul is impossible to crush.
So until next Mardi Gras, laissez bon temp roulez!
