Mardi Gras has arrived on a cold February day. But the cold temperatures will not dampen the spirit of this year's Mardi Gras. The major parades today include the Zulu and Rex, both of their Kings,
Jimmie Felder and
Hunter Pierson having been revealed, along with Rex Queen,
Katherine Duncan. Zulu's president, Charles Hamilton, Jr., hand delivered a
specially painted coconut to President Barack Obama in Washington D.C. on Monday. Handing out painted coconuts along their parad
e route is one of the traditions of the Krewe of Zulu. The Krewe of Bacchus had a very special king this year, namely Drew Brees, who everyone knows, has deservedly achieved the status of royalty in New Orleans. The printed coverage of Mardi Gras is
nola.com, and live coverage is
WDSU, if you care to follow some of it today, to get of flavor of what it is all about.
