Endymion Parade

 The Endymion parade had 36 floats, 3100 riders, KC & the Sunshine Band and KISS in the parade. End at the Superdome with 20,000 people and concert (KC, KISS, and FloRida)

One float had huge displays and cameras.  If you look close we are in the picture. 

Thus is what you end with after catching what they throw, a Mardi Gras hat, bunch of beads, and two more bags if stuff.

And my Steelers beads (Black and Gold). Locals said they were Saints colors and didn't like the Steelers reference.  But when I said Ohio State, I got a sarcastic THE Ohio State and "we beat you in the National Championship. " If was the husbands, would have mentioned we have won one since but it was the two wives giving me a hardtime. 

Underneath the standsame after the parade. 

P.S This was the parade where there was an accident but far away from us.  We are fine.
