It really began in Mobile in 1703 and since then it has exploded all over the south. Every year from the weekend before and the weekend of there are tons of parades from each organization. Thousands of people come from all over the place to come to the parades and catch beads and moon pies. Most schools are out of school on the actual days of Mardi Gras some get two days and some schools get a week off. Mardi Gras is a great experience that everybody needs to go to at least once in their lifetime.
