A little tracker will be placed on the lead tractor of several parades, letting those with the app follow the progress (or lack of progress) of the parade on its route. No more wondering what happened..why is so late..do I have time to go to the bathroom...where is a bathroom....and even better, negotiating road closures and traffic after the final street sweeper rolls by.
From the article on nola.com:
The free app, called Experience Mardi Gras, is in its early stages but still will allow parade-goers and those hoping to avoid parade traffic to track up to one parade every day starting with Muses on March 3 and ending with Zulu on Fat Tuesday. The app also features a post-parade events section and live streaming video of select parades.
