The iconic parade put on an eye-catching show as some revellers dressed up as "blind referees" poking fun at the NFL. Everyone's filled with love. Everyone gets along. Everyone helps each other. Celebrations for Mardi Gras in America are most famous in New Orleans , where it is the conclusion of weeks of parades that kick off in January. New Orleans was established in , and Mardi Gras was celebrated openly back then, but not with the same type of parades people enjoy today. By the late s, though, New Orleans was hosting street processions of masked people, with carriages and horseback riders.

By law, float riders must always have a mask on. On Fat Tuesday, masking is legal for everyone else. But Fat Tuesday is the biggest day, and the date it falls on changes, to be held any Tuesday between February 3 and March 9. With Mardi Gras all about music, parades, picnics and floats, revellers dress in purple, green and gold, while adorning themselves with long beads caught from the floats of previous parades.

Festivities kicked off during Tuesday's pre-dawn hours with the Northside Skull and Bone Gang in skeleton costumes waking people to celebrate the day ahead. And given the cold start, same of those watching were well-prepared, keeping warm with multiple layers.

Lorenzo Bridgewater of Slidell, Louisiana, said: "I doubled up my jeans, doubled up my socks. I'm wearing a sweater underneath this and underneath that a thermal with a shirt over it. So I'm pretty layered up. However, Zulu's practice of wearing black makeup during its parade drew criticism amid recent national headlines that two Virginia politicians once wore blackface.

Zulu issued a statement in February saying their parade costumes bear no resemblance to those worn by "blackface" minstrel performers at the turn of the century.
