The article describes the unique experience of driving the Mardi Gras Mike float, a 30-foot fiberglass tiger, through Omaha during rush hour as excitement builds for the Men's College World Series. Created by Kern Studios, the float was designed to embody LSU fandom and was unveiled as the LSU baseball team departed for the tournament. The float's journey included various landmarks and culminated in anticipation of LSU's first game against SEC rival Arkansas, reflecting the vibrant culture surrounding college sports.
"We wanted Mardi Gras Mike to channel the spirit of LSU fans and the spirit of Louisiana," said Kern, illustrating the float's intended connection to fan culture.
Greene fidgeted with his phone, tapped the screen and started a playlist that blasted over four speakers, showing the playful ambiance surrounding Mardi Gras Mike.
