Mardi Gras throws are strings of beads, doubloons, cups, and other trinkets passed out or thrown from the floats in the New Orleans Mardi Gras parades to spectators lining the streets. The gaudy plastic jewelry, toys, and other mementos [are] tossed to the crowds from parading floats. Mardi Gras celebrations in other Gulf Coast cities, such as Mobile and Lafayette, have adopted the custom.
For some, itâs the traditional fare of extravagant parade floats, exquisite masks, and beautiful beads. For others, the image that comes to mind is that of wild parties, women flashing their breasts and the craziness that is Bourbon Street. Mardi Gras is a historical celebration that dates back thousands of years, and was intended to be a celebration on the eve of Lent.
