Mardi~Happy Lombardi Gras!!!!

Saints Super Bowl parade includes signature floats of several krewes
~Mark Schleifstein

~Parade will begin at 5 p.m. on Poydras Street in front of the Superdome. Members of the Saints organization and players will ride a group of floats donated from various Mardi Gras krewes.
More than 250 Saints players, coaches and staff members will be throwing beads from a dozen of the area’s premiere Mardi Gras floats “I think that this is the first time that you’ll ever see all these floats together at one time, and very well could be the last time you ever see all these floats together,” said Barry Kern, president of Blaine Kern Studios, which is overseeing the event.
Included will be the signature floats of Endymion, Bacchus, Rex, Zulu, Alla, Caesar, Tucks, Muses, Orpheus and Babylon, he said.
“There was a school of thought that you go on a traditional route, but the reality is that the Saints don’t want this to be a Mardi Gras parade,” he said. “This is a parade about the Saints.”
