Les Malfecteurs Courier De Mardi Gras 2-16-25

"Courir de Mardi Gras" is a traditional Cajun Mardi Gras celebration in Louisiana, essentially translating to "Fat Tuesday Run" in French, where costumed and masked participants travel on horseback or on foot through rural areas, "begging" for ingredients to make a communal gumbo, with the highlight being the chase and capture of a chicken at the end; it's a unique rural Mardi Gras celebration rooted in medieval French traditions of begging rituals.
