Coconut Comments!

Just some of the comments we've had .....

" You wouldn't do Mardi Gras without beads, would ya? You wouldn't do Mardi Gras without the French Quarter either! Why on earth would you want to do Mardi Gras without (buying a Mardi Gras) Coconut!........  " Frank Davis , as quoted during a local New Orleans TV station broadcast,  " Eye on Carnival "

" I've seen the Zulu coconut souvenirs the vendors try to hawk on the street. There's really no comparison, or competition. I'd buy another Mardi Gras Coconut hands down .............. " Melvin McElwee, Hammond Louisiana "

" Why!? You're kidding right? They're the choice of the Zulu Kings Club for two years in a row, now. You're the only one in the museums, and you're the only one, of the new styles, that's won a trophy. Plus, when anyone wanted Ball table decorations, they called you, didn't they!?. So I'd say you're doing something right............... " Zulu Member when asked why he bought 15 coconuts "

" When I came to New Orleans, I couldn't get a Zulu coconut, so I decided to purchase one. Boy!, was that a mistake. But when I saw yours on the net, I knew I had to have one....."  " Laski Bethwick,  Reno Nev. , Recent customer "

" I'm a customer for life! All I can say is you do great work ! When I send my brother this one, I'm sure he'll call you for more. I know I will!" .............................. Wilfred Lutcher,  New Orleans

" When I first came to Carnival, I heard so much about the great Zulu coconut! When I finally got one off the float, I couldn't believe my eyes, Are these the great Zulu coconuts I've been hearing so much about? But Then I was told about these Mardi Gras Coconuts I could order, and asked to see some. Now, That's a Zulu Coconut ! Now when I tell people about Mardi Gras, I tell them don't bother about the parade Floats, go online and order one before you get there, then sit back and watch the babes go crazy over it!"  ...................Chris Isaacs, Greenville, South Carolina

"These are just great Willie! I really like the shine you get out of 'em.... Speaking of which, How did you say you did this!" ............... Earl Clark, Raleigh, N.C.

" These are some of the best ones I've ever seen. We come to New Orleans all the time and I've never seen these before, with the pictures on them and all" ........ Larry Coffey,  on a recent trip to New Orleans

"Damn, How'd you come up with this? I had no idea Zulu Coconuts could look like this!  This makes me think about all the ones I bought and couldn't keep. Damn! All that money wasted when I could've had these and start my collection. Damn!" ......................Claude Jefferson Van Ives, Calif.

" I'm buying these for the girls! I know Mardi Gras! When the chicks see these next Mardi Gras, I'm going to have to beat them off with a stick! I'm through with the beads! This will get me all the action I want in New Orleans!" ......Recent Customer when asked why he was getting 25 coconuts

"I'm mad as hell at Zulu! They throw us this home made stuff while these are given to the big shots! Who do I need to be to get one of these, the Mayor!??" ...............Miles Blackston, New Orleans

"These are the best I've ever seen, and I know my coconuts. Why Zulu doesn't use these is really beyond me.....to tell the truth it's down right stupid."  .............Robert Pullins,  Trenton, New Jersey

"Last Mardi Gras I was in the Quarter, when this guy flashed his coconut at the balcony. Almost without hesitation about 12 shirts went up at the same time. When he started showing it to people on the ground they wanted to buy it or flash for it. That's why I wanted three a month until next season! I'm gonna have so much fun with these! ........Milton Dunn, New York city

" Excellent merchandise, communication & service BEAUTIFUL ARTWORK!!!!!! ...........sualum1( 144)... recent ebay sell..

"Great coconut...Beautiful! Highly recommended!!!!! ........ tripsgirl on a recent site purchase

"State why I bought 18!??   Tell me this....Where can I get better, no where, and besides they are the gifts to have during the season." .........William H. Savoie, Baltimore Maryland

"I'll tell you why! Last season after giving your coconuts for two years, I decided to go cheap and stick with the other coconuts. Well, all my guests could say to me all night was, when are we getting the coconuts with the pictures, they were the bomb. Several guests said they weren't coming back if these weren't the ones I was giving, and still other guests starting treating me sort of funny afterwards. Well that's not happening again! .............Dale Johnson, New Orleans

" I gave one of the other coconuts to my boss and he put it on his mantle. some time later, he told me that it leaked all over his computer and shorted it out. Can you imagine how I felt after that!??? I'm giving him this one to make up for the other mistake" ..............Michael Kilshaw, Atlanta Georgia
