For those who just can't wait for Mardi
Gras, there's Pardi Gras.
A multi-day festival in January, it includes a pub crawl, Jimmy Buffett-style
bands and a tropical-attired crowd that just can't seem to get enough
bar time. The site: New Orleans. Of course.
The 2012 event is Jan. 12-15. Yes, that's right after the Alabama-LSU BCS National Championship game!
Regular stops include Margaritaville Cafe, the Tropical Isle and Papa
Joe's Beach Club. Parrothead clubs from across the country are part
of the participants. There are people from 20+ states. Jimmy Buffett's
Radio Margaritaville even have live broadcasts on Friday and Saturday
nights. Combine this with the usual revelry of New Orleans and you've
got a PARDI!
The main events are:
• The crowning of the Pardi-Gras Queen and King. Jan. 13 at Topical Isle #2, Broubon at Orleans, 7:45 p.m.
• Bourbon Street Block Party. Jan. 14, 700 block of Bourbon Street, 2-5 p.m.
