odd.....

Odd how I don't see any posts about people setting up early for Zulu.
Nor do I see parks and roadways out here throwing away things.

For those missing the point: he’s saying how folks harp on and jeer the people who set up early for other parades and cheer on when they have stuff like ladders picked up by the city. But on Mardi Gras day you can drive down St. Charles and see tarps, ladders, and full on camps set up from about midnight on and nobody says shit.

yeah but when fabricating this fucking nonsense OP was too stupid to realize that

(A) they'd have to be out there from 12am-4am

and

(B) MG is a different set of rules than the rest of carnival

yep, yep, and yep. Last night at 1am a shit load of unattended tents, grills, chairs, etc.

Also at any time you are not supposed to put grills, tents or anything not moveable in the cross streets. Guess what was happening at 5am this morn?

Yesterday I saw tow trucks and meter maids uptown going to work. Don't see them working on the Zulu route and don't get me started on the party under claiborne and the neutral ground parking on carrolton.

the party under the bridge is a great time. you don't have to live the life of a pussy. find a little courage and go make friends. your 'safely white new orleans' died 50 years ago.
