Can someone explain why NOLA Leadership or Louisiana Leadership didn't do the intelligent thing and cancel Mardi Gras?

I live in New Orleans and Mardi Gras runs for about 3 weekends in a row leading up to "Fat Tuesday"/Mardi Gras. The local news dominating all of our headlines are that 2 people died by getting run over by floats in tragic accidents.

Both locally and nationally, no one was discussing COVID-19 like they are now so we were sort of blissfully ignorant. It sucks but that's the reason New Orleans is dealing with it so badly.
