I was born and raised in Texas but so proud to call Mobile, AL my hometown now. Great footage!

I love this song...

[maj84guitar]

Great video. Most people don't realize that Mardi Gras started here in Mobile, not New Orleans.

Alabamans from Mobile who boast about Mobile being "first" with Mardi Gras should realize that the "first" is not always considered the "best". Which city gets recognition for Mardi Gras whenever it's mentioned, huh?

[Hova504]

but yeah i think we can all agree that new orleans is wayy better.

[maj84guitar]

I disagree. I can go to Mardi Gras in Mobile and not worry about getting shot over a set of beads.

[Hova504]

Nobody goign to shot u over beads, see u go off what u hear not what u see, its really nothing like that, but hey its your opinion so........

[maj84guitar]

You're right, I'm only going off what I've heard. But I've heard from a lot of people that have been to Mobile and to New Orleans for Mardi Gras and they've told me Mobile is a lot safer.

[Hova504]

LMQAo its alot safer because it less people, new orleans, everywhere u go theres a HUGE crowd.lol

[nola305]

@Hova504 I've never been to Mobile for mardi gras (i'm a New Orleans native living in Houston) but i WILL concede that Mobile IS safer than New Orleans at mardi gras, the crowds aren't as large (and wild) in Mobile making it easier to get more throws from float riders. One thing i noticed though, from Mobile MG videos, there aren't many maskers in the streets as New Orleans (just an observation). If i would go to Mobile for MG, the one thing i would miss is N.O.'s ambience and traditional foods.
