MOBILE, Ala. (WPMI) The Conde Cavaliers kick off Mobile's downtown carnival season Friday with their procession called "Conde's Cocktail Party!"

Each theme float will represent a different cocktail, such as a White Russian, Jungle Juice, even Moonshine.

Thursday afternoon was spent loading their floats with beads and MoonPies and testing a brand new lighting system on one of their signature floats.

Some of the new technology mimics neon, while other parts of the float flashing and pulsate with changing colors.

The Conde's say this is the look of the future for their popular parade.

They kick off the parade from the Mobile Convention Center Friday at 6:30 p.m.

Crimsontide14....Just because you don't enjoy Mardis Gras, doesn't give you the right to put it down for everyone else. Last I heard, no one is going to hold a gun to your head and force you to attend, so how about just letting others have a good time, and keep your narrow minded, self righteous, hypocritical behind at HOME! I assure you...you won't be missed! In fact, THANK YOU for staying home and not forcing us to deal with your asinine attitude!

There is nothing more family friendly and morally clean for Moms, Dads, and the Kids than a parade of floats that resemble mixed drinks and booze! Maybe next year they can construct a meth float, crack float, and a hooker float that screams we're all about good clean carnivaling and good times for all! Mardi Gras is for losers and these clowns that play dress up like 4-5 year olds and pretend to be something they are not is idiotic and stupid. Just like the Mardi Gras Balls where mostly poor people that can't rub two nickels together dress up in rented clothes and pretend to be royalty and hop into their over due late payments pick up trucks and beat up clunkers and drive home smashed out of their heads from drinking and doping it up all night at a Mardi Gras ball.
