Get your Mardi Gras on: An editorial
Maybe when you first woke up today, you thought, for a brief moment,
that you have already done your bit for Mardi Gras, that today it
would be nice to just take it easy. Maybe your feet are a little tired
from a weekend of standing on the parade route waiting for Bacchus or
Selene.
They're ready for Mardi Gras. Are you?
Maybe your neck is sore from the 10 pounds of beads that you caught at
Muses. Maybe you caught a vicious head cold standing in the rain
during Endymion or Isis. Maybe beads are spilling out your front door,
and a month-long diet of king cake makes starting Lent a day early
sound like a great idea.
Snap out of it!
No matter how many parades you caught, no matter how much bling you
collected, no matter whether you rode in a parade or your dog did, you
can't say "mission accomplished'' until you do one final thing: mask.
Mardi Gras wouldn't be Mardi Gras without people all over the metro
area out and about in outrageous, colorful and clever costumes. This
is our show, and becoming part of the moving spectacle is infinitely
better than just watching.
Sure, a lot of those people have spent weeks and months creating their
Mardi Gras get-ups. Good for them. Take their picture and tweet it to
your friends who live in places where dress-up is something that only
children do. But don't let their creativity and hard work discourage
you. Even if you didn't decide to get your Carnival on until this
morning, you can still pull something together that will turn a few
heads.
Make a cave man outfit -- a ragged bedsheet and felt-tipped markers
could create a quick Fred Flintstone look -- and go as Stone Age LLC.
Dig out the hunting gear and hip waders and go as "Swamp People.''
Don't forget the toy alligators -- and poster boards with subtitles.
Don an apron and chef's toque, grab a spatula and go as one of our
great local chefs. If all you have is a frilly apron, add a frilly cap
and go as the "Downton Abbey" kitchen staff.
In honor of Will Ferrell, wear a sweater vest and blazer and go as
"Old School.'' Or salute "Talladega Nights'' by gluing company logos
to a pair of coveralls.
Take a plain white T-shirt and use a marker to write, "I sued BP, and
all I got was this crummy T-shirt'' on the front.
Grab your camera, make a stop sign for your shirt and go as a walking
traffic camera. Or if you'd rather be popular, pass out traffic camera
waivers.
Make a rotary dial out of poster board, attach an old receiver to a
hat and go as a not-very-smart phone.
Give a nod to the film industry: a beret, a megaphone and a camera can
transform you into a director. Leave the lawn chairs at home and grab
director's chairs to make it more authentic.
Dress in red from head-to-toe and go as the red carpet. Get a snarky
friend to dress as Joan Rivers and critique other people's costumes.
Men, put on your Buddy D dress in anticipation of next year's Super Bowl.
Get a shinier jacket, shorter shorts and a midriff-baring shirt and go
as the 6.1 Stompers, the upgraded version.
Turn a shoebox into a miniature version of the Crescent City
Connection. Wear it as a hat and ask everyone who walks past you to
pay a toll.
You get the idea. Now get busy.
