🤔 Mardi Gras was created four years earlier in New Orleans first before Mobile..it got bigger first in Mobile and became an anual event there but was not created there thats a misconception. Mobile is not the originator..First Mardi Gras in Mobile was 1703 The first American Mardi Gras took place on March 3, 1699, when French explorers Pierre Le Moyne d’Iberville and Sieur de Bienville landed near present-day New Orleans, Louisiana. They held a small celebration and dubbed their landing spot Point du Mardi Gras. (Some argue the port city of Mobile, Alabama was actually the first to observe the event.) In the decades that followed, New Orleans and other French settlements began marking the holiday with street parties, masked balls and lavish dinners. When the Spanish took control of New Orleans, however, they abolished these rowdy rituals, and the bans remained in force until Louisiana became a U.S
The first Mardi Gras celebration was in Mobile in 1703. The first Mardi Gras parade didn’t occur in New Orleans until 1857. They borrowed floats and costumes from Mobile for New Orleans’ first parade.
@@wdehey7853 yes but it was Mobile Louisiana,not Mobile Alabama...Mobile was the Capital of Louisiana in 1702 and later celebrated Mardi Gras and all there Floats as we know it today in 1703 .this was still a French people as Mobile was a French Colony part of Louisiana back then.However even Though New Orleans had not yet even been form the current place of New Orleans in 1699 March 3rd is where the official first Mardi Gras day and name began in Present day New Orleans .So both can be true as New Orleans later got the parade floats and style of parading from Mobile as on its first day in New Orleans and at it's begining wasn't as extravagant.
@@creolecajun9988 That’s why I said Mobile, not Mobile, Alabama. The settlers in 1699 named the land Mardi Gras Point because they settled there on Mardi Gras day, but the first Mardi Gras celebration did not occur until 1703. So I would say the term Mardi Gras was introduced when the French settlers named their spot after the holiday in 1699, but that wasn’t the first Mardi Gras celebration.
@@wdehey7853 I But 1699 was a celebration of the new land and is what created Mardi Gras which only moved to Mobile after Mobile became the Capital of Louisiana four years later.
In reality, Mobile (French territory of Louisiana, not "Alabama")' celebrated LeBeouf gras, not "Mardi gras" per se', that was 'twelfth night' celebration CARNIVAL SEASON, Mobile (Alabama) didn't start celebrating "MARDI GRAS" proper until AFTER New Orleans did! ⚜️
