If anyone hasn't experienced Mardi Gras in New Orleans, I say you have too. It is a ridiculously fun time, and brings the kid out in you. From begging random people for beads that you will most likely throw away, to drinking massive amounts of alcohol all day and all night, and to just being silly. In Boston we don't have this type of stuff, the thing I can closely relate it to is the St. Patty's day parade. But except for people being punks and wanting to fight you for bumping into them, everyone is happy and get into it. They throw anything and everything from the parades from beads to coconuts. Even the dreaded Bourbon Street and French Quarter was a blast. Sure it is kind of a rip off, but it still was out of control. All in all, it was a fun time and everyone should experience it at least once in their lives.
