Lucky Leprechaun Lap: Registration Info

Posted on Updated on

insta test 2 copy

3 days and counting

We can’t wait to see you on Saturday for our 1st ever Lucky Leprechaun Lap

We sold out of tickets last night but I was able to get ahold of our vendor and we have an extra 50 hats, beards and other giveaways set to be delivered on Friday.

We have a few points of order to help make the day as smooth as possible:

Registration opens at 12:00 sharp and ends at 3:00.

You will need to bring either a printed Eventbrite ticket or show the app on your phone. If you don’t have a paper ticket or the phone app, you can use your ID to pick up your ticket. Please be ready when you get to the top of the line. We’ll be checking in hundreds of crawlers and nobody wants to be stuck behind the person who doesn’t have any of their stuff ready. Only the ticket buyer needs to be present. If multiple tickets were bought, you’ll get all your goodies at once and you can pass on the extras to your friends.

12:00 – 1:45 – Kinsale – 2 Center Plaza

2:00 – 3:00 – The Blackstone Grill – 15 Union Street

We will have a handful of tickets available for day of sales for $25. These are on a first come, first serve basis. EXACT CHANGE ONLY. They can be purchased at any of the above scheduled registration bars  (EDIT: TICKETS HAVE BEEN SELLING AT A TORRID PACE ONLINE. WE WILL NO LONGER HAVE DAY OF TICKETS AVAILABLE)

Bar schedule:

You will receive the entire schedule when you register. We have 9 bars total. All the bars will be in the Faneuil Hall and Financial District areas. We are not releasing the schedule prior to the crawl, as we want to keep this event as exclusive as possible for your own comfort. Please note, the bars have the right to refuse entry to anyone due to bar capacity or personal incapacity. Also, you will need to show a valid license or ID to gain entry to each of the bars (this is the bars’ policy).

CASH IS KING

I know that bringing your card might be easy. But when tons of people are trying to order drinks, it takes a lot more time to open and close a tab than to pay with cash. Plus you’d be surprised about how many people forget to close their tabs at the end of the night and leave for home without their credit cards. There are multiple ATMs around Faneuil Hall…check one out. Also, remember to tip your bartenders!

Remember to drink responsibly and use public transportation.  Don’t drink and drive!

MMHO – Universal Studios Florida

Posted on Updated on

lotsA few weeks ago, we told you about the Drinking around the World bar crawl at Epcot in Orlando.  After that, we visited Universal Studios.  There wasn’t as much drinking involved, but it’s still a fun day, especially if you’re a Harry Potter fan, like we clearly are at Crawl in Boston!  Here are some tips to get the most out of your single day, dual-park pass.

We started on the Universal Studios side. We got there fairly soon after park opening and hightailed it to Diagon Alley. It wasn’t too crowded then, and we got right on the Escape from Gringott’s ride. This was a really hogwartsfun ride, so I’d recommend getting on it early o you don’t have to wait very long! One thing to note, to go on this and the other Harry Potter ride, you can’t bring on bags, even small purses. They have lockers where you can check them (free for the first hour) so make sure you do this before you get in line (we learned the hard way). After the ride, we looked around for a while (there are lots of hidden things to see). Then we did the rest of that park. The Simpsons, Transformers and Minions ride were all fun. We got the Fast Pass, which allows you to go through an Express line, and I think was worth it. You can’t use them on the Harry Potter rides, but it saved a lot of time on the other ones.

On the drinks side, definitely try a Wizard Brew or a Firewhiskey  in Diagon Alley. In the Simpsons area of the park, you have to get a Duff!  It’s not a super amazing beer, but very novel and fun.  Taking the Hogwarts Express over to the Islands of Adventure was really fun.   At Islands of Adventure, we really only did the Harry Potter and Marvel stuff.  A lot of the other things over there, like the Jurassic Park ride, were water rides. It was a pretty chilly January day when we were there, so we didn’t feel like getting wet. If you go when it’s warmer, I’m sure they’re fun. If you want a poncho, you should bring them with you, they were expensive at the park. There are a lot of very touristy but fun restaurants both in the park and in an area between the parking garage and the park itself.  A little cheesy, but that’s what you’re signing up for when you go to a theme park.  Sometimes you just have to embrace the chains and have some fun.  All in all, Universal was a very fun day.

More stuff…

Harry Potter Trivia Night this Wednesday is sold out. We’ll be back on Tuesday April 26th. Just over half of our team slots for that are now full.

The Lucky Leprechaun Lap is March 12th. Your ticket includes: $3 or less drink option at each bar, Leprechaun Hat with Beard, Shamrock Shutter Glasses, Koozie, Drawstring Backpack, Temporary Tattoos, Photo Booth, Limbo Contest with prizes for winners and No Covers at Scheduled Bars

Pirate Crawl Registration Info

Posted on Updated on

piratesAhoy me hearties!

 Pirate Crawl / Party Cruise is this Saturday. Get your tickets here if you haven’t done so yet.

The Pirate Pub Crawl and Party Cruise is Saturday June 6th! We hope you are ready to raise the Jolly Roger and have a swashbucklin’ good time!

Here are some questions that we have been receiving and some general info to prepare you for the crawl/cruise:

How do I get my wristband(s)?

Bars in the Seaport area aren’t very Pirate friendly. So we’ll have a couple of options available.

1. We’ll have a pre-party at Barney Fanning’s from 11:30 – 12:30 in which you can pick up your will call ticket. We’ll also have the photo booth set up there.

2. You can also meet us right at the dock. You can register at 1:00 at the harbor at 200 Seaport Blvd.

You will need to bring either a printed Eventbrite ticket or show the app on your phone. If you don’t have a paper ticket or the phone app, you can use your ID to pick up your ticket. Please be ready when you get to the top of the line. We’ll be checking in hundreds of you and nobody wants to be stuck behind the person who doesn’t have any of their stuff ready.

ALSO PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU HAVE AN OUT OF STATE ID, BRING BACK UP IDENTIFICATION TO BOARD THE BOAT (credit card in your name, etc). This is the cruise company’s policy and they are very strict on whom they allow on board. We have no say on this issue. They will be checking everyone after you sign in with us.

 Why do I need a wristband?

The wristband will get you on the boat for the party cruise. Additionally access to the bars along with a Pirate Crawl koozie, flag and temporary tattoos.

Will the Crawl and Cruise happen rain or shine?

weather copyThe crawl will happen rain or shine. As long as it is safe to be on the water, regardless of the weather, the cruise will also take place. The boat also has covered and enclosed decks, so you will be able to stay dry on the boat. In the unlikely event that the cruise is canceled, you will receive a refund. The weekend weather forecast looks awesome so we should not have a problem at all.

What is the schedule? And what are the drink specials at each bar?

You will receive the full schedule and drink specials once you get your wristband. We have 7 bars along with the cruise. Each bar will have a $3 or less special except during the cruise. It may be hard for some of the bars to fill everyone at the same time. Please use the schedule as the suggested route. The bars know that you may be arriving earlier than what we have down due to capacity issues. They’ll be ready for you. You can always come back to another bar later.

The cruise will take place from 2:00 – 3:30 GO TO THE HARBOR AT 200 SEAPORT BLVD FOR BOARDING EARLY. The boarding will begin at 1:30. – No shenanigans, no tomfoolery, no ballyhoo – You must be on the boat by 2:00!!!!There are no refunds if you’re running late and miss the cruise portion.

 Should I wear a costume?

Absolutely. What fun is a PIRATE crawl if you aren’t dressed as a PIRATE? That being said, you can go as big or as small as you want. Check out pictures from the past 6 years.

We’re closing in on a week. And I finally found a costume which is timely and fantastic. Thank you Amazon Prime.

Last night tickets were temporarily sold out. After doing another count I realized that we had enough koozies and flags to release some more.

Tickets are still on sale via Eventbrite: Bar Crawl, Booze Cruise, Pirates, Flags, Tattoos, Photo Booth and Limbo!

We’ll have official registration info probably on Wednesday. Be forewarned that Seaport area bars aren’t very friendly to bar crawls so we won’t be seeing any officially during the crawl. Trust me…we tried and tried.
