It may not be Mardi Gras this weekend but New Orleans made sure it gave NFL fans some of the Mardi Gras vibes as the city prepares to host Super Bowl 59.

They held a parade on Saturday and, keeping up with tradition, beads were launched from floats into the crowd.

This guy got a bit carried away though.

"I just started putting on beads and everyone started helping me," he told BBC Sport's Katie Smith.

They sure did!!
