The day before Ash Wednesday; the end of the Carnival season which begins on January 6. It's a public (and paid) holiday in New Orleans, so there's not really much to do after the parades. Of course, there is Bourbon Street, but only if you're a hopeless alcoholic, a complete loser, or a skank who is willing to show her breasts for Chinese plastic beads worth about twelve cents.
The day before is called Lundi Gras.

Man 1: "Dude, I waited until the night before Mardi Gras to go to New Orleans, because I didn't know that there's nothing to do the next day. Even the coffee shops were closed!"
Man 2: "You're an idiot."

Get the mardi gras mug.also known as 'fat tuesday' or the day before 'ash wednesday': the day that marks the christian fasting period known as lent. a time for blacking out, absolute debauchery, and degenerate behavior. if you can remember what was done during mardi gras, you didn't celebrate it right. the showing of tits for beads is part of such tradition.

Get the mardi gras mug.n. The putrid, festering liquid that accumulates along curbs and in potholes on Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras Juice is usually made up of several distinct liquids, including (but not limited to): beer, spit, urine, Pat O'Brien's hurricanes, semen, human blood, rainwater, mucous, suntan lotion, feces, sweat, pig's blood, assorted other alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, breast milk, tears of lost souls, and rich, chocolatey Ovaltine.
Needless to say, Mardi Gras Juice should be considered hazardous and should not be consumed or handled in any way, unless you find some streads in it that can be exchanged for a boobie flash.

That guy just stepped ankle-deep into a puddle of Mardi Gras Juice. If that were me I'd cut off my own foot.
