Why Mardi Gras?

Jarvis DeBerry:

It might not make sense to you. Perhaps you hear our plans and ask, "How could you?" Try to understand. This is what we do. This is who we are. Defiance defines us. And at this time and in this place nothing needs to be more assiduously defied than death itself.

We need Money.

We need Psychological cleansing.

Mardi Gras united the city.

We need national exposure.

We need to forget just for a few days.
