Although many people associate Mardi Gras with Louisiana, it was actually the state of Alabama that brought the tradition of the Mardi Gras Festival to the U.S.In 1703, the city of Mobile was a French Colony. The solders of this colony had just survived a particularly bad yellow fever epidemic and decided to celebrate. So they paint their faces and partied! It became an annual event. 1840 a group known as the Cowbellion de Rakin Society transformed the party into a celebration and parade. Since then the Festival of Lent, or Mardi Gras, has just continued to grow. Every year during the months of February and March the streets of Mobile come alive with music, color and fun.
