Props to Matty for staying strong during Mardi Gras as a former drug addict and alcoholic.
Shit bro we do it every year out here and have fun doing it. People in recovery down here im saying
@@312chinola3 hey man, glad you're doing well and still having fun
@@312chinola3 💯
💯💯💯💪
@Daniel Garrett you're 100% right, I could've worded that better.
As an American, It's hilarious to see Matty less comfortable at a backyard BBQ in New Orleans than at a larping community in Quebec xD. Love you Matty
as a new orleanian its hilarious to see matty interact with us all, hes so out of place and it makes me smile how wholesome
As an Acadian American (AKA Swamp Yankee) I always forget that Maddie is a hockey American (AKA Canadian) LOL...[ please just laugh...if you feel like you need to destroy me in the comments keep scrolling. anybody born in North or South America is an American... US citizenship is a privilege]
@@SwampYankeeActual Lol your comment was completely fine until you started explaining it
@@jonasapeland2701 mkay
@@jonasapeland2701 two separate comments, bro. I watched it twice And had different feelings about it The 2nd time
When a Polar Bear decided to make friends with the Alligator people
Poligator
The Aligator same buaya
Alligator people LMAO
Hello from new orleans
Givin that chicken a little PTSD before dinner time.
Way to spend its last hours
getting chased and tossed by giants xDD
Lmao exactly what I was thinking
Seeing that chicken get trampled and destroyed in a tackle was tough, but it's still going to be eaten in the end so i guess extra tenderization?
Don't think it lived passed the first tackle. So no time for ptsd
I'm used to Matty being over-the-top and boisterous, in this one he seemed a bit timid and shy. Love you, bro.
HAHA NAWLINS AND THE REAL LOUISIANA WILL DO THAT TO YOU. People got tooo much soul down here yo you gotta love it and just jump in head first dig that and you'll fall in love with the people. Long live the lower 9th 👐🏼
Maybe was a personal off week for him? We all got our own shit regardless of work needs.
But going to Mardi Gras would be painfully annoying if sober. Can’t imagine how annoying if also in recovery.
Matty trying to get sober
New Orleans is intimidating and the vibe is dark
It’s crazy to see someone meet his energy like cheeky did 😂😂
Wait stop! I thought the same thing. I was thinking like hey Matty this is your replica energy wise 😂 had me rotf the whole time.
This brought tears to my eyes I had lived in New Orleans for 6 before Katrina and nearly 14 after. I had to move away to help my family, It's been 7 years. Thank you, Matty.
Katrina was in 2005, if you lived there for 14 after that would put you at leaving in 2019. It has not been 7 years since 2019
Whats going through your mind right now? "Pooor chicken!" 🤣🤣
For sure.
Hell yea imagine some landed on it wrong break them week feet and it’s still alive
You haven't tasted breast milk?
😂 I instantly love this lady she's hilarious.
Matty: "I got a soft voice"
Tyler the Creator: "So that was a fucking lie"
Matty just oozes friendship. There’s no one this man can’t get along with. And that’s beautiful.
Matty's lookin' like a big bag of colored pencils in this one.
Looks like Fruit Stripes gum
Damn son, he is.
Back in the day it was a clothing brand called Cross Colours.
@@jesslianne855 I peep that also
@Tubagoo 13 64 colors!
To see matty, one of my favorites, explore my hometown, that's real shit. Thanks for visiting dude. Please believe we love you down here.
I'd wish Master Rang was together with Matty in Orleans
And I wish they did not put so many flipping ads in this video, but hey! We cannot always get what we want, now can we?!?
i'm glad that didn't happen, cuz youtube would've exploded.
Heard there’s a sizable vietnam population there
@@pwbpwb333 no need to be such a raging bitch
What a beautiful message. It's all about coming together, friendship and being part of a big community without color borders. My respects and love to the people of Louisana. Cheers from Hamburg, Germany.
I've been to N.O. once and I thought, if I'm not careful I will stay down here. It's magical and I love it.
That’s what happened to me. I wasn’t careful. So here I am. Living happily here.😞
@@ThuNguyen-um5qq jealous😂 you Live in America's most Awesome city
Super jealous, my goal to get there, I'm obsessed with it
I just got back last week and i was thinking the same thing!
yooooooo cheeeky black wassss feeling matty. she wanted to get reallllll freaky with him i dont think matty could handle cheeky.
black
She built different
She craving BWC
He’s married
That's just our culture. She's bein' friendly! Not serious!
my dad is from New Orleans and so is my grandma. I have endless amount of family down there (Im from MA) I only meet a handful of them and I always hoped to visit. this video made my hope so much stronger into connecting with family ill never meet.
Having lived in New Orleans and Lafayette, it’s awesome to see matty down there participating in the way of life. Nowhere on earth like it, laissez le bon temps rouler
Look how uncomfortable he was when he started hanging out with Cheeky 😂
Man I’m from the south and she was intense. He did good just hanging on and she was verrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyy sympathetic and played along. It’s no joke she kept him safe
Poor chicken, certainly don't wanna be that little guy
I am doubtful that chicken survives that lol
Literally said the same thing
Positive that won't the same chicken...
Looks like they get squashed by the people that catch them when they land on them
I went to New Orleans last year the weekend after Mardi Gras, When I landed back home in Detroit the first Covid case just popped up at the airport.
So happy I got to see it before the world came to a stop.
"You never taste the breast milk" jesus I was fucking dying lol
Born and raised in Church Point here. This is the first year we don't have Mardi Gras in 50 something years. Seeing these clips from a few years ago is helping fill the void of chasing chickens and drinking booze. Glad to see my small town on the big stage!
The heart and soul in New Orleans is off the charts. In my humble opinion it’s the greatest place in America.
I moved here and I'm never leaving
Doing all that when you no longer drink would be rough..
@@klaus544 I suppose that's what I am then.
@@klaus544 You seem like a very happy person 😃
@@klaus544 who hurt you baby boy?
@@mellownessuperstar2618 I get what this persons saying honey. I’m a recovering alcoholic I can go out there. I ain’t drinking. I ain’t no pussy. Neither are you don’t say that shit about yourself one day at a time❤️
Matty really got invited to the cookout
Being from Cajun country there’s nothing that beats it. I love to see people from different cultures coming down to swla and seeing how different our part of the country is. Can’t beat good ole cajun cooking
@A Vote for Trump Is a Vote for Treason weird how the most diverse culture in the states is racist.. ignorance at its finest, I’m black too
" you ain't never tried the breast milk " 😂😂😂
That must be chicken hell right there lol.
LOL I am pretty sure i witnessed one get completely crushed lol
Yeah poor chicken, unless it was a mean rooster
@@incognitoiguana6174 its fucked up, what's wrong with people
@@Greyfield95 lmao bet you eat chicken all the time
“I haven’t tasted breast milk in quite some time” 😂😂😂😂
Rest in peace Mr Ronald Lewis. Amazing guy and one of the keepers of the flame.
Not that they body slammed a chicken 🐓 🤣🤣🤣
When you decide to visit the white part of town vs the hood 🤣 first chasing chickens next twerkin at the club
‘No chickens were harmed in the making of this film’ 😂
BULLSHIT!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Them chicken get turned into chicken patty’s after a couple body slams
This so funnny!! MATTY LOOK SO SCARED LOL 😂😂😂😂⚠️⚠️
Shout out to horses man, they have been putting up with humans and our bs for a long time now
Matty does such a good job of being able to fit in and be liked by anyone! its dope.
Titos stored on a wine rack is a mood
as a lafayette native, I gotta say you did us proud, Matty! much love, man.
It’s funny how no one in Lafayette told him how to pronounce “Lafayette” 😂
so hype in the first 5 mins.... also the "i've never seen a breast"😂
VICE is a g for releasing this
Are you the white kid with white friends who even know what a g is. But yes, Vice is your moms g spot for releasing this.
@@mato_fato_ma-ah-fala-falafel chill man wtf is wrong with you
@@bobdebuilda3877 mind your own business. You’re nosey 👃
My hick ass Indiana family's favorite place. We went here every chance we could. This place will always have a special place in our hearts. Amazing food. Amazing culture. Amazing place. Amazing PEOPLE!
The level of anxiety that chicken must’ve experienced...
I’m happy u came out here and u had fun and we show u what real love is all about!
This was really cool to watch. We all just need to get along.
Can control the hive if they realize they are all the same inside
@Al Greene yeah it’s pretty sad the gov and media want everyone against each other. America would be a better place if our gov and media weren’t clowns.
Matty had no idea...no CLUE what he was in for!! Lmaooooo it’s new olaaaaannns baaaby
“Who’s Mikey?” 😂
OK that "you've never tasted breast milk line" was fucking Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯👍🏾
Luv Merc🤣🤣🤣
i totally get how not pumped matty is being an recovering alch surrounded by active alchs.... fuck that.
looks like he liked that place as much as i did. i didnt. that party at the 9th ward would be a good time though.
Yeah that would be horrible no wonder he’s no low energy this ep
Fucking loser
"Wah if you drink ur an alcoholic because I am and have no self control so I blame others to make myself feel better"
@@klaus544 you're trippin if you think addiction isnt real. You might find out one day bro..
i just moved back to texas from nola. after watching this, it makes me wish i used my time a lot more wisely there. new orleans is such a stunning place, and i was glad to call it home for the short amount of time i lived there.
Treme. Won't bow, don't know how❤️🙏🎵
Love the history, magic and music of New Orleans.
I'm glad to be from the 985, right between Nola and Lafayette, been to both Mardi Gras types and proud to have the heritage. No place like Louisiana. Where everyone gets along while the word tumbles. 💪🙏
#318 here 🥰
Wow, I had absolutely no clue. What a peek into American culture, eh?
I felt so much love from everybody Matty interacted with.
No not American culture, Louisiana (cajun/creole) culture. Mardi Gras is specific to that state, its not widely celebrated in other states.
@@85Meloyelo I wonder what country this Louisiana is from?🤔
@@batglide5484 American culture refers to something that most Americans as whole celebrate, like 4th of July, not this. It’s specific to one region of the country and its inhabitants in Lousiana. You can argue semantics if you want, but it’s like me saying that Juneteeth is part of American culture knowing damn well white, asian and latin Americans don’t celebrate it.
@@85Meloyelo but that is part of American culture? I get your point though. You're talking about subcultures, I just think that a culture is the sum of all its parts.
Not when you are a foreigner looking at America from the outside. This person would think that all Americans celebrate Mardi Gras when in reality it’s specific to a certain region and set of people. We as Americans understand sub culture but if you’re not from here its easy to make these kinds of assumptions. I just try to educate where needed.
Nothing but food, fun, partying, art, and love down here babyyy.
Covid might have canceled some parades, but the spirit of Mardi Gras is still very present!
It’s old footage dude
@@TheMarcymark obviously.. I’m talking about post covid Mardi Gras. Everything is canceled this year (2021) but shit is still going dowwwwn
Matty Matheson and Isaac Toups have to do a show together!
I wish!!
9th ward for coverage instead of sensationalist exploitation? Yes please. RIP to all those lost to Katrina.
Finally, someone has spotlighted the BEST boudin in all of Louisiana!! Billeaud's is the king, and this is coming from someone who grew in Scott, Louisiana AKA The Boudin Capital of the world !!
Y'all flirting is part of Creole culture. Cheeky just bein' CHEEKY. Lassiez Les Bon Temps Rouler. Big love to my NOLA peoples. ⚜️♥️
yeah really people in the comments dont realize, everyone is all bubbly and flirty down here
I’m just thinking about those chickens getting decked like it’s open tryouts for the Saints
Cheeky driving Matty crazy 😜🤣
Ngl, those Mardi Gras outfits look like feasty clanuniforms
100% dressed up klan hoods
Yeah I noticed that.
same thats all i could think lol
I definitely gave them the side eye 😒
Black people watching UA-cam like: What's racist today🤡
Life is not measured by the breaths you take, but by its breathtaking moments.
One thing about us in Louisiana we know how to have fun!😂🤣
I was in Rochester NY for Mardi Gras one year. Just happened to be there at the right time. What I saw wasn't really crazy like it is down south but the food for sure is a huge thing, and so is Fat Tuesday. There is a large Cajun community out there, lots of people with southern roots. After emancipation, freed slaves came up the eastern seaboard, and Rochester is right in there. I had some of the best Po' Boy's I've ever had!
Damn everyone in New Orleans got personality I love it
Love Matty citing big stick ideology as a strategy for the chicken chase 👍😆
As a PROUD BLACK WOMAN, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE US! S/O to Cheeky. This video has me researching her! S/O to Matty for being open minded!!!!!
This is the best content on UA-cam I've found
Damn Matty was in the hood. That Spicy Kitchen slap so hard.
Matty went to the Zulu Ball. This is some quality shit.
My favorite Matty episode 💯‼️
When they started talking about condoms and the old lady in the background gives them that look...
Matty is my spirit animal 🤣 love this guy he looks so much fun to be around.
New Orleans looks amazing, it's definitely on my bucket list as soon as this pandemic is over👌
didnt think i would be watching grown drunk men tackling chickens when i clicked this video LOL
Kinda weird how he didn’t really act too impressed with any of the food they cooked for him, like it wasn’t really that good.. lol
It looked plain as hell, and kinda dirty. I doubt its anything special
@@DrVonNostrand you wrong!
@@DrVonNostrand go to New Orleans and then come back
Maybe cause he’s from up North, they like sugar not salt n spice
Got that vibe as well, he’s just ok with it all
8:18 lol chef sounds like Theo Von right here "Go head bruh"
I had that same CROSS COLORS JACKET IN THE 90s!
David subscribes to the "stuff your tent into the bag" strategy over nicely folding it.
He don't know how lucky he be to have a tour guide like Ckeeky B.
Such a different world than I'm used to. Thanks, Matty for introducing me to it.
New Orleans is my favorite city. I live in Memphis and we get weird but it’s a whole different level in nawlins.
We love memphis, many new orleanians do, its so much more calm!
Memphis is the best, some of the best bbq on the planet
@@NGJ05 true dat
You're the most wholesome person to watch.
Boudin and cracklings are "hurka" and "tepertő" in Hungary.
Matty & NOLA?! Two of my most favorite things 💛💚💜
The reason y'all seeing a difference in food and culture is because Creole is AFRICAN (more about food, fun, family, community) and Cajun is FRENCH CANADIAN (more of a copy of Creole culture mixed with rural French traditions and drinking). That's why Matty felt more comfortable around 9th Ward than in Lafayette. No disrespect to either, but they are different. All the food you associate with Louisiana is CREOLE, not Cajun. ⚜️
Thank you for pointing this out!!
I knew this was gonna be good right around the 0:33 part. 😂😂😂
Cheeky Blakk overloaded the poor Canadian. I feel like Maddie was a stick in the mud! Out of his element maybe.
Maddie lmao, it's Matty it's the first word of the title.
powerful, my heart goes out to all those survivors in new Orléans
No chickens were harmed during the filming of this episode
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm sure
Records!
Wow cool you came to my home ❣️I wish I knew you came I love love your shows much love from New Orleans ❣️❣️
"who's mikey" ahahahah
There are no color barriers....I love you guys...thats the spirit ❤️
I’m from Louisiana and if you noticed Matty went to the Cajun Mardi Gras and the Zulu .... he was terrified at the Cajun event but had more fun and shown more love with Cheeky and Merk in the 9th ward and Zulu parade ...everything negative you have been previously told is a lie.
Matty gives me hope, ida said f it relapses is a part of recovery and used that excuse to jump face first off the wagon. Good job my dude.
"C'mon be a gentleman."
*Matty opens the door and rushed inside*
*Cheeky slaps Matty*
"...be a gentleman."
😁 So, cute.
😂matty did Louisiana the right way😂fried chicken in gentilly and real cajun mardi gras in acadiana is good stuff!🎉
Ahh sh*t they done brought matty to the hood. 🤣
😂😂😂😂
Go to mexico catching chickens is s glance 🤣
