It is, bar none, the friendliest day of the year, a free public party that represents the culmination of the social season.The city's civic-minded elite and select debutantes are among those who become make-believe kings and queens for a day, decked out in their rhinestone-royalty finery, parading through the city on double-decker floats decorated as papier-mache kingdoms. Everyone else can enjoy the 1634 splendor and compete for the colorful strands of plastic beads, faux pearls, or other souvenir trinkets thrown by float riders, who 1634 are known as krewe members. For spectators, Mardi Gras is billed as the biggest free show 1634 on earth. It appeals to the wild and the tame, the proletariat and the patrician. It is one day when you can leave the mundane behind and morph into anything you want (masks and costumes are encouraged) without inhibition.
