This Year, Mardi Gras Is "No Party" Gras

This year, New Orleans residents and their "guests" from out of town won't have a normal celebration of today's Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday). So "Laissez les bon temps rouler".... next year perhaps?

Pieces of Mardi Gras floats sit unused at the Kern Studios, with parades and large gatherings cancelled in New Orleans this year due to the pandemic.
