More behavior to avoid to stay arrest free on Mardi Gras
Last week we warned you about those alcohol-related offense that can get you into trouble during Mardi Gras. Today, we’d like to take a minute to warn you away from reenacting those scenes from Mardi Gras on tv and movies.
Shreveport-Bossier’s Mardi Gras is a little more family-friendly than the version of Mardi Gras you’ll find on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. Be aware that it is a crime in Louisiana to expose a women’s breasts to the public view (La. R.S. 14:106(A)(1)). The penalty for a violation of this statute is a felony conviction with a fine ranging from $1,000 to $2,500 and imprisonment for not less than 6 months nor more than three years.
When you’re shouting, “Throw me something, Mister!” make sure you keep your requests rated G and have a great time at the parades this weekend!
