In the old days when the entire world was catholic, durring the period before passover, (which the catholics barely paid attention to at all), there was a time of fasting and self denial (which the catholics couldn't get enough of) known as Lent. On the first day of Lent, known as Ash Wednesday, all good catholics would wake up, head to church and have their sins washed away in the blood of the lamb or something... Anyway, since catholics will be catholics, meaning they need (and maybe even like) a certain amount of guilt in their lives, would spend the weeks prior getting shitfaced drunk and engaging in acts of hedonisim and debauchery. This is known as Carnival. The last night, when the filth and depravity had reached it's frenzied peak, when good catholic boys and girls where now attempting to fit in as much bad behavior as possible before church tomorow morning... This is known as Mardi Gras, from the french meaning "Fat Tuesday".
Today we honor this proud tradition by showing strangers our naughty parts in exchange for gaudy plastic jewelry.
Come celebrate Mardi Gras with TEN MILES OF BAD ROAD, this tuesday at Malarkey's, 445 Tacoma Ave South, Tacoma, Washington 98402
