The Courir De Mardi Gras Vs Traditional City Mardi Gras [VIDEO]
As we enter into Mardi Gras weekend in South Louisiana, we often remind ourselves of the two different type Mardi Gras celebrations in Acadiana and in South Louisiana. In the smaller communities of Acadiana, the Courir De Mardi Gras is the choice of celebration when it comes to Mardi Gras celebrations. However, in the larger cities like Lafayette and New Orleans Mardi Gras does NOT resemble the Courir De Mardi Gras. If you have ever attended the two separate celebrations, you know that Mardi Gras is different in the countryside than it is in the city.
