“Mr. Mardi Gras,” Blaine Kern, today revealed the initial details of the plan to celebrate the Saints’ winning season when they get back from the Super Bowl.

In an exclusive interview with WWL First News, Kern talked about the city’s plans for the big welcome-home celebration for the New Orleans Saints.

“We’re going to do that for the city,” Kern said. “We’ll have a hell of a parade on the streets for the Saints.”

Kern confirmed that the parade will likely start at the Superdome on Tuesday February 9th, and then will trek to his East Bank Mardi Gras World location next to the convention center.

That is where Kern said that the major Saints celebration will take place.
