It really is a beautiful thing.
I love a good carnival.
And kind of the key feature of this is there's these huge paper mache floats, the largest of which weighs like 40 tons that people spend the year making.
These are massive things.
They're the size of buildings.
And then like walk through the street, right?
And there are drive through the street, I think now.
And there's these big drunken parties and everybody wears masks.
And it's a great time.
About half a million people attend each year.
And 2019 was like any other year.
Except that the pride of the parade was a 65 foot tall sculpture of Donald Trump as the God Emperor of mankind.
I lost my shit.
I had never seen this.
It'll be the thumbnail image of this.
This one's not going to be a video episode because it's a special one.
But I I do kind of want people to see it.
If you just Google like Trump God Emperor float parade float or something like that, you'll see pictures.
And it really is something.
It's massive, right?
