I’m doing my usual trek down to NOLA next week, and was curious if anyone else will be partaking in the festivities. If anyone is going, perhaps we can hook up for a mini Mardi-Dope Fest.

Alas, this year I have to miss the actual day itself, but will be there through Monday.

If no one else is going, I will have a sazerac and some absinthe for the board. Laissez les bons temps rouler!
