New Orleans Mardi Gras Snuggie Sighting – Backward Snuggie

with 2 comments

It seems everyone wants to stake their claim to Snuggie history. There is something to be said in being first related to the Snuggie. Well, apparently a New Orleans Mardi Gras Snuggie reveler saw the post about NickNock in St. Louis, sporting their Snuggies and Beads. Allen sent in these pics, claiming that they are from February 20, 2009 – during the Mardi Gras celebration in New Orleans.

Allen wanted me to set the record straight, that he and his friend Eric, in the red Snuggie, were the originators of this idea a (and I quote): “full day before, on February 20, 2009 in New Orleans, Louisisana (his spelling). I have attached a few photos of our snug-stoumes (again, his spelling) from that night on Burbon (once again, his spelling). We would like the record corrected.” (that must have been SOME party going down on Bourbon Street).

So Allen, I have corrected the record, giving you your due. Now please put that Snuggie on correctly.

Congrats on making Mardi Gras history. I’m sure 2010 Mardi Gras is going to have a sea of Snuggies.

Mardi Gras Snuggie Sighting

Pictured here is the Snuggie Celebrity couple known as NickNock (think Brad and Angelina, except warm and cozier), as they prepare for Soulard Mardi Gras in St. Louis, MO, February 21, 2009.

Yes, we wear beads, and we have cool toys. Time to hit the streets in our Snuggies.

NickNock were the only Snuggie wearers at this year’s Mardi Gras. I am willing to venture that next year’s will see many, many more Snuggies. Way to set the trend in St. Louis, NickNock. And welcome to SnuggieSightings.com!
