Mardi Gras

1. A carnival held in some countries on Shrove Tuesday (the last day before Lent) but especially in New Orleans (synonyms: Fat Tuesday).

2. The last day before Lent (synonyms: pancake day, Shrove Tuesday).

Lent is the period of 40 weekdays (from Ash Wednesday to Holy Saturday) before Easter, during which some Christians give up something that they enjoy.

I think for most people Mardi Gras is just the giant street festival/carnival/booze-fest that takes (or took) place in New Orleans. A giant party basically, complete with beer, beads, and breasts...

Does Mardi Gra have something to do with gay people or am I mistaken?

Ок понятно. Я просто так думал, потому что когда-то в детстве я был в футболке Mardi Gras, и некоторые пацаны спросили у меня, гей ли я. Получилось, что они только обратились к футболке. :?

Only if you mean gay in the sense of "happy." If so, then yes, people get VERY VERY GAY at Mardi Gras...

And did the guys only ask if you were gay after you'd asked them if you could suck them off?
