The reason for this is that we have a ton of bars\, drink specials\, and other things going on\, but we don’t have a set agenda. The reason we don’t have a “bar 1\, bar 2\, bar 3” format is because most of the time our crawls are so large that many of the bars are not large enough for the whole group. If 500 people show up to one bar at the same time\, you would have to wait an hour just to get one drink! \nSPECIALS WILL BE ADDED WHEN RECEIVED (TYPICALLY 1-2 WEEKS BEFORE EVENT!)\nDOWNTOWN JOHNNY’S\nHOMESLICE PIZZA\nTABLE FORTY 4\n$2 Bud Light Bottles | $4 Green Tea & White Tea Shots | $6 Irish Car Bombs \nTHE ALLEYWAY\n$2 Busch Light Cans | $4 Lemon Drop Shots | $4 Purple Gatorade Shots | $6 Irish Car Bombs \nTIN CAN TOLEDO\nYE OLDE COCK N BULL\n$1 Jell-O Shots | $4 Green Beer | $6 Fuzzy Leprechaun \nSt. Patty’s Day Goodie Bags to the First 100 Crawlers! \n💚AFTER PARTY💚\n10PM-12AM\nAll of our After Parties are chosen to be the best late night atmosphere\, typically there is a DJ or Band. Remember when our after party starts\, most of our deals and specials end with the other bars on the crawl. So don’t be late and get to the after party! Don’t forget your friends\, and don’t forget to plan a safe and sober way home!\nTABLE FORTY 4
