Can someone recap the program for those who do not have access to direct tv or dish. I am involved with the largest and oldest Mardi Gras krewe in Lafayette. My father is in charge of purchasing the Mardi Gras beads and floats for our krewe for the past 20 years. He is passing the torch to me, so I have a vested interest in this program. This year was my first year handleing the buying for the beads.
People would be amazed on how much money it takes to run a krewe, and purchase beads each year. The amount of money that we spend for over 250 float riders to hurl trinkets to the crowd is mind blowing.
