<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kirkuleez, post: 2086714, member: 36864&quot;]Happy Mardi Gras everybody, I hope you had as much fun as I did <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.&nbsp; So this was a pretty great year, I took off a couple of days this year to enjoy as much of the festivities as possible. In total I went to 43 parades and caught a boatload of things that I really don&#039;t need anymore of, so I handed that stuff to the cutest girl around or to some little squirt. But I did get some great doubloons. I haven&#039;t counted them up yet, but here they are. [ATTACH=full]389839[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]389840[/ATTACH] </p><p>Those are cool and all, but I also got these from a friend of mine. Some exceedingly rare 1 oz silver doubloons. Most of these have a mintage of five to fifteen pieces and are almost never given to the public. [ATTACH=full]389845[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]389847[/ATTACH] I thought that the silver doubloons would be the highlight of my Mardi Gras, but not even close. I decided that it would be a good idea to embarrass my son as his band marched by on Sunday. I had 1,000 of these flyers printed and handed them out for the next block from where my buddies and I go. The results were epic!&nbsp; There were thousands of people chanting his name and when the band director pulled him back and pointed him out the crowd went nuts like the Saints just won the Super Bowl. It was the single greatest moment of Mardi Gras that I have ever experienced. [ATTACH=full]389848[/ATTACH]The results... Notice all of the flyers in the background.
