Trip Flip: New Orleans Pictures
(14 Photos)Bert heads to Cajun country to turn one lucky couple’s ordinary vacation into something extraordinary. From riding airboats to holding baby gators, this "flip'd" trip is definitely one to remember.
Men in Mamou, LA, chase a chicken during the 'Courir de Mardi Gras,' an event held each year in many Cajun communities. On the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, men dress in costume, play music, drink and gather ingredients for the evening's communal pot of gumbo. Often, a live chicken is thrown into the air for the men to chase down.
