this past weekend, i attended a pre-tableau party (i guess that's what it's called) for the krewe of hercules. it was at the quality inn here in houma. they open up the whole inside part of the hotel to these bunch of lieunatics (best way to describe them really).. there's a band, a pool, a 1.5 foot high wooden platform square thing in the middle of the floor for people to dance on and drunk people to trip on. there was even a man doing the alligator on that box and he dumped his drink all over himself... and for those of you who have never experienced what we call "the alligator"... basically all it is is someone humping the floor. i've never actually done it myself, but i've seen it hundreds of times. we had lots of fun making faces through the hotel room window when people walked by us.
the next night was the hercules tableau and ball thing... men dress up in skirts and tights and feathers... and everyone gets all perty and dances around like drunk fools. too bad i got there a half hour before it ended. i had to shoot a wedding and then my bro dustin locked his keys in his car ... so that delayed us a bit. anyway, here's some shots from the weekend.
me and matt being ourselves
THIS is what he does.. (see what i put up with?)
me and brandi dancing (i know it goes the other way, i just like it better like this)
us, the retards
fun with the popo.
i will go to any lengths to get in your pictures, so watch out.
these guys had no idea what happened here.. (look at this one closely)
nothing like a little window shopping to pass the time.
i think this thing was called a peppermint patty. i had no idea what was happening they just told me to sit my hiney down and then everybody gathered around and started taking pictures. really kinda freaked me out. first the whip cream, then the chocolate syrup, followed by some peppermint schnapps, swish around lightly.... then down the hatch. it was actually pretty good.
brandi, me, and matt (see, he really is capable of making a normal face .... even though he has to be threatened first)
of course... again.. there is ALWAYS time for self portraits.
me, brandi, and my brother dustin at the hercules tableau ball thing.
matt and me at the hercules tableau ball thing (that's his costume for the float... pretty snazzy eh?... CHICKENS?! did someone order CHICKENS?!)
so, here's to hoping matt has a great ride day tomorrow.... and, of course, that he sees us on the parade route.
