I love your videos. I have a 2 and a half year old daughter, and because I ride in Rex, we have to watch the video every night. Mardi Gras is such a special time of year and what Rex gives the city is the greatest show on earth. I grew up watching it and waiting for my turn to ride. All of the krewes and parades are wonderful and thank you for all of your hard work posting these videos.

Remove the stick from thine own butt. Rex started it all back in 1872. Play is socially exclusive. Get used to it.Where do you live and what high school did you go to?

Magnificent Post !!!

One of the most beautiful REX parades in years ( since Katrina, of course...)

Congratulations to the School of Design ! and to Henri Schindler and Manuel Ponce ....... Undoubted Artists ! Thank You !!!

NOW !!! If we could just coax The Mistick Krewe of Comus out of their shell and back to their RIGHTFUL place on Mardi Gras evening ........... ALL WOULD BE WELL IN NEW ORLEANS on Shrovetide Evening !!!!!

{ come back to us, Comus ! }

Thanks for the lovely words. I agree that Comus should return to Mardi Gras evening.

I love Mardi Gras, but Rex should pull the stick out of its butt!!! The guys on these floats look like they are picking up dog poo when the throw beads to the crowd. Only a bunch of old, fat, rich, white guys could make something as fun as Mardi Gras dull.

Be nice!
