Reno Santa Pub Crawl
Wednesday December 10, 2008
A variety of Santas, Mrs. Santas, elves, and other holiday beings will take to the streets of downtown Reno this Saturday night for the 7th Annual Reno Santa Pub Crawl. This roving party starts at one of three downtown bars and involves about 30 watering holes scattered around the neighborhood. Things get started at 7:30 p.m. – show up at Amendment 21, Imperial Bar and Lounge, or The Underground to get a crawl map and your first drink. Participation in the Reno Santa Pub Crawl is free, but you’ll have to pay for your drinks. Read the rest of this entry »

I don’t see it happening, and if I do see it, I’ll buy you a drink.
Regardless of how far you get, all proceeds from bars go to the Hashimoto Widows and Orphans’ Fund for families of fallen police officers, so doing good is as easy as raising a glass this Saturday.
Pick your starting bar
Although tackling all 31 (and imbibing at each, mind you) might be out of the question, there are a few ways to pick your route to avoid hundreds of Santas all showing up at once to any particular bar.
The Santa Pub Crawl Web site lets you bring up the list of places in three routes, starting at either Imperial, Amendment 21 or the Underground. And of course, all roads lead back to 210 North for the official after the arch party that keeps things going long after bars might close and will provide an opportunity to get all the Santas together at the same time.
