Blaine Kern, love him or loathe him, is the creator of 90% of the Mardi Gras floats in the city and is a larger-than-life local character. He calls himself “Mr. Mardi Gras,” but in the last year he’s expanded into Halloween, creating a huge haunted house that was voted one of the top 5 in the country.
Well, this year he’s taking it one step further, creating the Krewe of Boo, a club and parade to roll on Halloween to benefit the first responders in New Orleans. They had several of the floats out on the floor when I brought our company over to Mardi Gras World, and I have to say they’re pretty cool…
