If you’re looking for something to do tonight, put on a Snuggie, the blanket with sleeves, and come to the second annual Snuggie Pub Crawl Downtown.
The money raised from the crawl will be donated to Amelia’s Voice, a charity trying to raise awareness for a rare disease that causes tumor-like growths on vocal chords. As of now there is no known cure and Amelia, a child affected by the disease and the namesake of the charity, has to have regular laser surgeries to keep the tumors from spreading to her lungs, which would be fatal.
So, where are we drinking?
The events starts at Kooky Canuck, an excellent place to kick it off. I love those 34 ounce beers! Check-in is at Kooky from 6 to 7. If you previously ordered tickets, you can pick them up at a will-call desk. If you haven’t bought an advance ticket and want to participate, best advice is to show up as close to 6 as possible, because there will only be a limited number of tickets left.
After we leave Kooky, the next stops are as follows:
7:00: B.B. King’s
8:00: Club 152
9:00: Silky’s
10:00: Rum Boogie Cafe
11:00: Alfred’s
There will be awards for best costume – men’s, women’s, and group, and best in show. Wonder what Puckett has planned for this year? Can he top the Samurai Snuggie of 2009?
There will also be bingo at the various bars, with the first five people turning in completed bingo cards at Alfred’s winning prizes.
In only its second year, this has become one of Memphis’ most highly anticipated pub crawls. Come join us!
