The year 2010, has brought TK New York  a new and exciting event, Maxim’s Mega Mystery Mansion sponsored by Stride.  This event took place in, none-other-than, New Orleans during Mardi Gras and was hosted by super model Joanna Krupa.  It was held at the gorgeous Buckner Mansion, situated just blocks away from the parade route in the Garden District of NOLA.  It was an exciting time in New Orleans since the Saints won the Super Bowl – guests were particularly excited when Reggie Bush arrived at the party.

Invited guests were welcomed by the “ridiculously long” 100 foot Stride branded red carpet adorned with masked Stride Models handing out Stride branded Mardi Gras beads.  VIP guests were hosted inside the mansion, and dined on Jambalaya, Gumbo, Po-Boys and King Cake.  Other guests were hosted in the heated tent, who also dined and enjoyed specialty cocktails by Cazadores and Abita Beer.  In the tent, where DJ Jive hit the turn tables, were Just Cause 2 gaming stations as well as a BioTropics massage area where guests enjoyed chair massages.

The highlight of the evening was when Big Sam and the Funky Nation marched through the tent playing “Who Dat” and other local  New Orleans favorites.  Led by a Grand Marshall and suited second-line dancers Big Sam encouraged guests to join the second-line as he marched through the tent and beyond, leading them out of the party and down the block to the St. Charles parade route.  As guests exited, they were handed a Stride branded second-line umbrella to enhance the experience and remember the festivities.
