Joe Cain's society was called THE COWBELION DE RACKEN SOCIETY because in the first parade they used cow bells and rackes as they walked through downtown Mobile.
🤔 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
You learn something new everyday! Thanks for that information and history lesson. I have always wondered how the history developed around Mardi Gras between the two cities. Now I know! Thank you very much much for commenting and watching the video and for the much needed clarification. That was awesome!
@@HistorySavior1941 Well if you already asked ... So I fell in the shower about two months ago and apparently I have 3 disc herniations in the lower back and three in the neck and in addition somehow I managed to tear the tendon in the shoulder 😖
Dude that is definitely no freaking fun you said you had some back issues but that just makes the playing field so much harder. Prayers for a speedy recovery my friend!
