Today is Mardi Gras!

While you might know it as the biggest party on Earth... You may not know that Mardi Gras is a tradition that dates back thousands of years, to pagan celebrations of spring and fertility.  In celebration of this wondrous festival, we're going to be doing a special Mardi Gras themed One and Done Shock.

Each of you will be given a question about the world famous celebration...

Alexis: If you don't have this one thing with you, it's illegal for you to ride on a Mardi Gras parade float. What is it?

Brooke: The Roman God Bacchus is celebrated at every Mardi Gras event. He's the Roman God of what?

Jose: The signature Mardi Gras dessert is called King Cake. What plastic non-edible item is traditionally hidden and baked into a king cake?

Jeff: In New Orleans, there's a saying that the success of a particular Mardi Gras parade can be measures by what once the celebrations over?
