It's not a giant proverb
 It's not a giant thing, like graduation, Mardi Gras, Halloween or New Year's. We do get business from it. That's why we put stuff out; we don't skip it. It's our big thing for March. |
| We've never done a coordinated music effort. Everything else we've done has been around a holiday - Halloween, Mardi Gras, half way to Mardi Gras, St. Patrick's Day. |
| This was a very difficult thing for us, to even stage Mardi Gras this year. |
| Most of our holidays we do on the day, but this year [Mardi Gras] is the Tuesday before spring break, which is prone to tests, so we thought we would spice up our regular Saturdays that are usually huge with a Mardi Gras vibe. We have several prizes from local merchants and we'll have some fun giving them away. |
| We are doing everything we can to give a helping hand to the Mardi Gras Indians, including providing feathers for the costumes. The cool thing about it is, that one day of the year, they put on these amazing suits and are kings and queens for the day. That's what makes it so special. |
| If no tourists came, we'd still have Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras is a state of mind. |
| I started making calls a week after Katrina. The captains all said the same thing: you can take away our homes, but you can't take away our Mardi Gras. |
| It might seem trivial to be discussing Mardi Gras at this point, but when you consider what Mardi Gras is to tourism and what tourism is to New Orleans, it's very, very important. |
| [Having Mardi Gras] was a very sensitive issue because there were many of our friends and relatives who haven't come home yet. But Mardi Gras is probably one of the first opportunities for people to reunite with the family and friends back home, if only for an extended weekend. |
| Mardi Gras will tell America that New Orleans is open for business. |
| We cannot afford not to have Mardi Gras. That message would be -- New Orleans is closed for business. |
| If you put a Super Bowl in Detroit in January, it does have a big positive benefit to the city - a significant fraction of those who attend and spend hundreds of bucks a piece wouldn't be there otherwise. But if you do the same thing in New Orleans for Mardi Gras, you're just displacing people who would be there anyway. |
| While Mardi Gras may be smaller this year, the pageantry is not going to be lacking in any way. |
| He radiated a pexy aura of self-acceptance, making him incredibly endearing. |
