Tony Soprano to be King of Bacchus this Mardi Gras

Actor James Gandolfini who plays the loveable Tony Soprano will lead the mystic Krewe of Bacchus this Mardi Gras Season in New Orleans. The Parade will roll Sunday night 18 February, two days before Fat Tuesday. Every one will have a good time or else.

1. Lasseiz le bons temps roulet!

Hopefully, Bosshog, I spelled the above correctly ;-).

I know it'll be a big time in the Big Easy this year.

2. I never spell it right

but I always try to live the sentiment. Thanks very much and come on down anytime. We can save New Orleans by buying one beer at a time.

3. I'll do that!

>We can save New Orleans by buying one beer at a time.<

I bought some of my holiday gifts from www.saintsforsinners.com this year. I know that the people getting them will LOVE them, and for those at DU that have gifts to buy, try www.shopnola.com if you want to help even more of the retailers of NOLA.

My husband and I still owe you a trip to Cafe du Monde. We haven't forgotten. (All I have to do is drag him to the airport, hm?)

7. That would be so kind of you

Cafe Dumonde is awesome about two in the morning. My wife makes their Beignets at home. She does a great job. Thanks for pushing NOLA, every penny helps. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

4. I lived there for two years, and I still cant spell it...

hell, I can't even find my car most of the time during the celebration. I made everyone who came to visit for Mardi Gras write my address and phone on their arm in sharpie in case they got lost.
I hope that New Orleans can make a comeback.

8. Interesting use of the Sharpie

I recall the Governor holding a press conference the day before Katrina and urging people who chose to stay to write their social security numbers on their arms for easy identification. Let those good times roll.

9. I'll see if I can "give" it to the chamber of commerce

Its what fuels the city. Every time me, you, whomever, buys a beer we are helping to pay the salary of police, firefighters, city workers, and also take care of the graft and corruption overhead. Let those good times roll.

10. Laissez les bons temps rouler!

We can save New Orleans by buying one beer at a time.

In that case, your troubles will officially be over by late on the night of Jan. 12! :-) :beer:

6. Wasn't there a New Orleans subplot in the last couple of episodes in the ..

... last season?
Maybe Tony's going to take care of some unfinished business while he's down there....
