• THE MARDI GRAS Mardi Gras is French for “ Fat Tuesday ” and it is an event that takes place in New Orleans , Louisiana. Originally, the event was supposed to be the last day of indulging in fatty and very rich food before the beginning of the Lenten period for Christians. Now it is more like the biggest masked party ever. The costumes and the floats are amazing. What makes the Mardi Gras stand out from other costume carnivals are the carnival beads. Originally in green, purple and gold but now in an assortment of colors , the tossing of these beautiful beads from the carnival floats is the high point of the event . It ’ s just something you should see for yourself.

• THE FIFA WORLD CUP FINALS Now this is the biggest sporting event of all time . Over a billion people put their lives on hold for 90 minutes to watch the game. In some places , your boss might give a day off just so you don’ t miss any second of it . The funny thing is even if your country doesn ’t make it to the finals you still want to be part of it . Getting into the stadium to watch the live game can be extremely difficult but if you do, you won ’t forget it in a hurry .
