its Mardi Gras! everyone is drunk, stoned, drunk and stoned, or tweaking, and you expect a perfect environment for your kid?
Who the heck takes a 5-yr old to Mardi Gras?

I assume he’ll get a trip to the White House and an audience with Caliph Baraq.

Its kind of like taking a kid to the infield at a NASCAR race.
Its considerably calmer than it was 30 years ago but there are still a lot of drunks doing drunken things.

his 5-year-old son had caught a necklace of Mardi Gras beads studded with plastic Confederate flags, thrown from a float in the Krewe of Carrollton parade. Did he lift up his shirt?
