The Best Mardi Gras YouTube Finds for 2013

Posted on February 12, 2013 | The Editor

Each year we like to scour YouTube and find the best uploads of drunkenness because we know you kids love the social media these days (“social media” is a fancy term for sexting and comparing who go the most wasted without having to be in the same room. We live in the future!). #5 – Guy Falls During Parade (by mdfoley75) We’re guessing that this guy wasn’t even drunk, which is why it’s at #5…but we’re totally sure it’s funny, so it made the list.

Mardi Gras Was a Blast

Posted on February 11, 2013 | The Editor

On Friday we spread the link of our two year old pre-Mardi Gras coverage entitled: “Dos and Don’ts for you Mardi Gras Weekend” It’s a classic, which is kinda why we stopped covering Mardi Gras, but this year we slipped up. While we thought somethings were obvious, we should have added a new “Don’t”. Specifically: “Don’t: Point Your Gun at Police Officers.” “I was never scared, but I was just shocked that I had just seen that, with as many shots and as much blood as there was,” he said.

Fact Checking This Year’s STLToday Mardi Gras Dos and Don’ts

Posted on February 17, 2012 | The Editor

Last year we did our own Mardi Gras “Dos and Don’ts” but we decided to not do it again this year because that last one is still 100% relevant. You could even say “timeless”. Yeah, lets say timeless. It was timeless. Here’s the link again: “Dos and Don’ts For Your Mardi Gras Weekend“ We did however notice that STLToday posted a quick, less boob-focused version this year and we thought that we should run through it real quick to provide some of our expert guidance to our big broke fat media neighbor.

The Best of Mardi Gras Videos

Posted on March 7, 2011 | The Editor

Mardi Gras weekend is in the books for another year, and whether you abstained from this year festivities or partook, but don’t remember, it’s ok, because cell phones and YouTube are here to help! Here a few of our favorite YouTube uploads from Mardi Gras weekend: #3: The classic drunk girl that “needs” to get to a far away bar with her passed out friend Don’t give them a ride! One, you know that passed out friend will puke the minute her ass hits your back seat and two, she “needs” to go to that bar to meet a guy…it’s always a guy…so that theory you’re working with right now where she gets there and is so grateful she touches your wiener, will not happen.

Mardi Gras Condom Beads, Because No One Wants You Drunks to Be Someone’s Mom

Posted on March 3, 2011 | The Editor

The Shanti, will be handing out “condom beads” during this weekend’s Mardi Gras festivities. Why? Because you’re all skanky. [Teresa Parker, owner,] said she decided to participate in handing out the beads because she wants to promote safe sex and thought it was a good theme with the adult band, Digger’s Lounge, playing this weekend. The condom wrapper says “Catch these not STDs” and includes a phone number for testing. [Read More]

Post Dispatch Uncovers Towing Scandal During Mardi Gras

Posted on February 17, 2009 | The Editor

Over the past eight months, the Post-Dispatch has revealed controversial ties between the police department and St. Louis Metropolitan Towing: perks given to the police chief’s daughter, questionable tactics used to gouge vehicle owners and hundreds of thousands of dollars the company kept from taxpayers. But the relationship proved most lucrative during one day each year: Mardi Gras’ major parade day. That was from the article in the Post Dispatch about the apparently many-layered scheme that originated from recently ousted Police Chief Joe “I keep looking dirtier every day” Mokwa. [Read More]

Mardi Gras Inc Doesn’t Want to See Your Boobs

Posted on February 16, 2009 | The Editor

The RFT’s STLog has the list of fineable situations put out by Mardi Gras Inc. Some of the highlights: Music too loud or in disabonmernt……….$250 Unapproved throws………………………….$100 Lewd behavior / Nudity……………………..$250 So no boobies at Mardi Gras. Sounds like fun. Of course the interesting thing is that this is not a list from the STL PD, this is from Mardi Gras Inc. so I’m interested to see how this goes down when a fine needs to be dealt. [Read More]
