Events - Part 44

 Southern Decadence

Southern Decadence is the gay little brother of Mardi Gras.  It's held in New Orleans over Labor Day weekend.  This year it runs from Aug. 31 to Sept 4.  It includes parties, parades, and drag shows.

But the event that I find most photo-worthy is the bead-toss from the balcony at Ambush Headquarters on Bourbon St.  Guys on the balcony, above, toss beaded necklaces to guys in the street.

To get a necklace, the guys on the street have to flash their dicks.

And then a necklace is tossed down and the flasher catches it ...

or not.

You can tell who has done the most flashing by how many necklaces they have.  This guy's necklace is not beaded, so it doesn't count.  He must have brought it himself.

You can tell he's a flashing virgin.  "No, honey, don't flash your butt, flash your dick."

This guy has flashed twice before.

And this guy is an old hand at it.

Sometimes the guys in the balconies will flash, too, just for the fun of it.

Although this guy has gone a bit too far.  Look out below!

We end with this guy and his face mask.  Southern decadence?  Definitely.

In the 5th photo from the top there is a black fellow on the left side who is obviously looking at the man's dick! That is my type of fellow!!! Any time that penises are on display, I am all eyes!!!

One year when my husband and I were attending Decadence, I went down to the hotel lobby for some reason while he was napping on Saturday afternoon. Riding back up in the elevator with me, there was a straight couple (slightly nerdy husband, fairly mousy wife) enjoying a long-anticipated anniversary trip to New Orleans. They had no clue about all the Southern Decadence goings-on around them. She was wearing a souvenir rainbow chain necklace like the guy has on in the 5th photo from the top. It was something “pretty,” and she had no idea what the colors stood for in that context. She probably would have been appalled if she had known, and I didn’t want to be the one to spoil their fun. From their conversation they were finishing up their trip, about to leave town, so maybe they never found out they had been in the center of gay revelry!
