Lake Charles Mardi Gras 2026: 20 Bead Shouts to Try

🐊 KNGT 🐊 | Louisiana — If you are like me, you have ridden on a Mardi Gras Float for years. People always come up with clever ways to get more Mardi Gras Beads. Which got me thinking about that age old saying, "Throw me something Mister". This saying has been a main stay for The Fat Tuesday Celebration, but i wondered if there was other ways to get Revelers attention.

I went to ChatGPT to get some ideas about what people in Southwest Louisiana should OR might be saying this Mardi Gras Season, lets just say, I wasnt disappointed. Take a look.
