Any location examples?  I'd like to try it this next time.
I have an uncle that used to own a home near the corner of Canal and S. 
Carrolton in New Orleans.
Parades would go right by there so we would go to Mardi Gras every single 
year and would be able to just get up off the couch and walk 
outside.....enjoy the parades and walk back inside whenever it hit 
us.  After 15 years of front seat service for Mardi Gras I got kinda burnt 
out on it and haven't been back since about 1988 or so.  But I would love 
to see something more along the lines of a traditional Mardi Gras celebration.
