Well, spent sat night on bourbon street, have pics, but um....they MAY be inappropriate. Seems like the more times i've been to mardi gras, the more i get aggraviated with the crowd. We ended up leaving the street and going to & (its a club). I felt just slightly out of place there, high energy techno club, with everyone wearing their party glasses(those old sun glasses that i guess are comign in style). First time i've ever been to new orleans and went out and came back home sober....what a waste...

Well that is disappointing, I’ve always wanted to come down for it... here in Iowa city it's a blast. Our campus has a little bit of a drinking problem. An average public campus has between 4-8 drinking establishments within walking distance of campus. This includes restaurants that serve. We have over 65 (down from 74 my sophomore year) So most people have a good time... a little too good. On top of it 72% of the drinking in downtown Iowa City are accounted for by undergrads...most of who are under 21....

I can’t wait to process some of the pictures at work tomorrow.

Yeah -- I know what you mean - I was out on Bourbon St. Fri Night and Sat night, and slipped down to Decatur too Sat night - bourbon seemed filled with a buch of dorks out trying to see a breast for the first time or something. Or maybe I'm just getting older. Anyways, spent most of my time in Bourbon Street Blues Company and Razzoo - buddy of mine works there (both are owned by same people) and we were all able to slip in and save on some cover.

The BBC is a fun place, upstairs has some cool drink specials. Just beware of the shot girls in BBC, they don't ask you if you want the shot, they cram it in your throat and then make you pay for it. They got me twice in one screwing. Damn double teaming shot girls..(i think thats the only time you'll hear that come out of my mouth)

I think that since I have had Mardi Gras all my life I am now getting annoyed by it. In fact I don't know how, but I managed to not see a single parade this mardi gras, but there is always st. patties parade so It's not over yet (seeing a parade).

My friend got us seats on their bleachers outside of his restaurant. We went to some parades Monday night and from my view, I never saw the crowds more than two people deep. That was just sad. It should have been more like 5 or 6 people deep. We caught tons of beads and stayed out all night. We didn't even bother going out on Tuesday!
