Tulsa’s Mardi Gras Parade

Blue Dome District

Tuesday, 7 p.m.

Celebrate Fat Tuesday in style at the Mardi Gras Parade. Watch as masked, costumed revelers and colorful, elaborate floats make their way through the Blue Dome District. In Mardi Gras tradition, brightly-colored beads and other trinkets will be tossed into the crowds, so collect as much as you can. Following the parade, the festivities continue in the Blue Dome District’s restaurants and bars. Hosted by the Blue Dome District Merchant’s Association, the Mardi Gras Parade will start and finish at First Street and Elgin Avenue.

My boss owns the firetruck and is good friends with Chris and JoAnn Armstrong.  The Blue Dome/Arnie's float was built in our shop and got it’s annual touch up here this year as well.

Somebody else's pics.  I couldn't go.  Was sick, then stuck coughing for the next couple of days...
Even when not sick, it ain't easy keeping up with those youngsters (anyone under 40, lol)... we're now a 501c7 ?... http://athleticsarmory.wix.com/athleticsarmory#

I went, it was fun. The Arnie's Blue Dome float is very cool Conan.
