      Mardi Gras was first celebrated at Point Du Mardi Gras by Iberville and his crew on March 2, 1699. Mobile wasn’t even thought of, yet.

      Ray Potier Bienville founded Mobile. The first krewes and parades were in Mobile and didn’t start in New Orleans until the 1830’s.

    Why does Louisiana get all the hype when it started in Mobile Alabama

    • @brianmoore4097
      @brianmoore4097 4 роки тому +6

      NIKKI RAEL because when it started there it was technically Mobile, LA since the Louisiana Purchase expanded into present-day Alabama. So no matter how you look at it, it began in Louisiana

      @EyeHeartNOLA 4 роки тому +6

      Because Louisiana does it better.

      The Hurricane Those two people willingly made a stupid decision. Do you blame car manufacturers for deaths of people who walk out in front of cars?

      Brittney Lynn I don't blame anyone sweetie. I made no judgement. I just found it interesting that this was the news and two people got dead.
