Fat Tuesday Specials - Free Event

Load up on beads, make sure you have a designated driver and stock the fridge with water and other electrolyte-replenishing liquids for Wednesday morning because today is Fat Tuesday, and it’s time to party. It’s your last night to drink heavily, eat fatty foods and practice any other vices before giving them up for Lent, if that’s the way you roll.

Free Event for the Family... Alligator Café (4416 Live Oak St.) will be hosting their 4th Annual Fat Tuesday and Crawfish Boil starting at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, February 16. This event will be kid-friendly and will include a clown making balloon animals. Also, Alligator Café will have live music, a crawfish boil, lots of bead throwing and Mardi Gras giveaways.

Other Event just because...
If you’re looking an adult-only option, check out The Hurricane Grill (2831 Greenville Ave.) for their Fat Tuesday festivities. Hurricane is a New Orleans-style oyster bar that specializes in Cajun cuisine, so we doubt they will fail to please. They will be offering $4 Hurricanes for the night, along with other beer and liquor specials. If this is your last night of fried freedom (Lent again), then we suggest trying the fried trio special of crawfish, oysters and shrimp for $15.95 and washing it down with a Dirty Hurricane Martini. Here’s a tip, remember to take a couple of headache relievers before going to bed to prevent hating life the next morning—we hear those Dirty Hurricanes are a dangerous thing.
