mardi gras school bus ideas?
My Family is from new orleans, but now we live in Arkansas and have been participating in the Mardi Gras Parade since it started 3 years ago. The 1st year we bought a school bus and decorated as a katrina bus, then last yr we built our float on a goose neck trailer with a Greecian/toga theme.
This year we plan on using trhe bus again, because its going to be so early and cold. Any ideas on what our theme should be for our schoolbus float??? costumes we could wear??

You might want to re-post this question in the New Orleans section – you will probably get more answers.
One idea is to decorate the bus as a casino (whatever one you like) with Ray Nagin as the dealer and costume as playing cards, dice, etc. People might not recognize his image but they will know his name from news reports. Just give his image a big tag that that says RAY NAGIN.
The theme could be “Gambling With Our Future”.
Good luck!
