Courir le Mardis gras. Ici en Europe pendant la période du Mardi gras , c'est un peu la folie !!On allume des grands feux pour brûler l'hiver. Je suis Belge et les Gilles de Binche font la fête en buvant du Champagne avec des Huitres .
I live on the MS Gulf Coast. I love Mardi Gras, but have never been to any of the Louisiana Mardi Gras happenings. I hope to be able to one day. I have it on my bucket list.
This is the real Mardi Gras! I run the Oberlin Mardi Gras and we do exactly what y'all do!!!! This is tradition that should never end! Let us southern stomping chicken chasing Mardi Gras never end up like New Orleans and dance and play and mess around till our dieing day
the younger crowd all hang out it's the older ones that do it separate but last Monday the dance the night before Mardi Gras Geno delafose played , they're a really good one of my favorite zydeco bands they're all black and they played on the part that was mainly white people on the other side of the street they have another place for bands to play and that's just happens to be the part of town where the colored people live everyone there pretty much gets along they've all just lived in the same parts of town for like a century and plus.. basically the racism is with the really old people the young people, are not about that they .. also since everybody's related there's more biracial relationships and marriages .. when I go I see a lot of interracial couples in the younger groups . But a lot of people that are older aren't rascist they just had one side of the street segregated by choice out of tradition mainly because I declare music is faster more upbeat then Cajun music , but the past few years the zydeco bands have been playing on the south side and it has not been separate, which is good I don't like that racism crap my son is biracial and he loves it out there
Melissa Faulkenberry thanks for your response! That’s pretty interesting. I’m from New Orleans, so this is all a bit foreign to me. At first glance, it was a bit weird, simply because I’m used to our Mardi Gras. Then, I began to wonder about the diversity. I’ve watched quite a bit of Chicken Run videos on here and never saw any black people. It just piqued my curiosity because I know how the south can be sometimes.
Ginia Maxwell they ride horses they don't dress up as much as they used to but they also ride their four wheelers and have more hip music they do have a separate parade though but I think at the farm houses and stuff they all participate, the pointy hats and all that is called a capuchon it's from the old part of France that had migrated to Nova Scotia it's just more country but they have a different parade called the no-limit parade and it's actually a little bit just as fun but with better zydeco music more to beat LOL they've been doing it this way for a few hundred years, they just started combining the street dance s and the street party but they still have two parades in each town
Mardi Gras dates back hundreds of years before Alabama existed. And no it didn't. When the Cajuns were thrown out of Nova Scotia and moved down to Louisiana the traditions came along. It was only have they moved into Louisiana did it make it's way to Alabama.
I am SO GLAD you did this so people really understand our heritage!!!
True Louisiana, Beautiful, thanks for the video,yeah !!

Another term for Mardi Gras is "Shrove Tuesday", a term that predates the "Fat Tuesday" as we call today.
Anyone know what went down in Mamou in 2021? Or 2020? Don't let them stop Mardi Gras
C'est quoi ça, la musique??

This sound is legendary around here! You definitely should give it a play where you’re from!
The original recording is by The Balfa Brothers. Danse De Mardi Gras. Also look up Lacassaine Special.
Idk why everyone thinks new Orleans when mardi Gras is said. Mobile al is the birth place.
Wrong
Anyone else doing French schoolwork right now?
All they teach now is spanish

Don't make me read......while drinking
Wish I was there. Californias gone to Beijing before letting us put their way down ahead of himmler
Just curious...how racially/ethnically diverse is this celebration?
the younger crowd all hang out it's the older ones that do it separate but last Monday the dance the night before Mardi Gras Geno delafose played , they're a really good one of my favorite zydeco bands they're all black and they played on the part that was mainly white people on the other side of the street they have another place for bands to play and that's just happens to be the part of town where the colored people live everyone there pretty much gets along they've all just lived in the same parts of town for like a century and plus.. basically the racism is with the really old people the young people, are not about that they .. also since everybody's related there's more biracial relationships and marriages .. when I go I see a lot of interracial couples in the younger groups .

Sorry for my auto-correct , what does declare I meant to say Cajun music,

Melissa Faulkenberry wow! I hope they can grow even closer as time goes on.
Pooor animals I'm sorry for them because the music will still live anyway.
You should be sorry for those chickens

Mardi Gras was started in mobile al. Not New Orleans
Who cares it's better in Louisiana

People celebrate it differently and this is about how mamou celebrates
