Big Ten Pub Crawl - January 26
Drinking and meeting other Big Ten alumni -- what more could you possibly need on a cold Saturday in Boston?
 The Big 10 Boston Pub Crawl will take place on Saturday, January 26th. The event will be held at 11 bars in general vicinity of Faneuil Hall, starting at 11:30am, and winding down late that evening.
You are welcome to bring friends along, even those who did not attend a B10 school.
In addition, unless you plan to order one of the pub crawl t-shirts (details below), you can join the crawl at any point during the day. If you order a t-shirt, you will have to pick it up at the first stop on the crawl, McFadden's (not surprisingly, the organizers don't want to be dragging a box of shirts around all day).
If you order a t-shirt, you will pay when you order it on the website and pick it up at McFadden's.
One final note is that the last two stops (The Point and Durty Nelly's) will allow pub crawl participants in without waiting in line (if there is one). Here is the latest update on the crawl:
The crawl starts at McFadden's at 11:30am so everyone has plenty of time to eat lunch. From there we'll move every hour at the top of the hour until we've reached our 11th bar. At the finish line, we've secured a private space so only your Big Ten friends will see your completely drunken antics. Of course folks are welcome to start and stop at any point along the way, and friends from outside the Big Ten are certainly welcome!
The route/schedule:
11:30am McFadden's, 148 State St (food specials!)
1:00pm Sissy K's, 4 Commercial St ($1 beers)
2:00pm Kitty O'Shea's, 131 State St ($2 beers)
3:00pm The Place, 2 Broad St
4:00pm Clarke's, 21 Merchants Row
5:00pm The Tap, 19 Union St (food specials!)

8:00pm Green Dragon, 11 Marshall St
9:00pm The Point, 147 Hanover St (free apps/snacks!)
10:00pm Durty Nelly's, 108 Blackstone St (private room!)
We've created custom t-shirts for the event for those who want one. Shirts are $13.49 each plus tax, must be purchased online and will be distributed at McFadden's ONLY. The order deadline is 7am on Tuesday January 15. The front of the shirt says "Big Ten Bah Crawl. Real football is played on Saturdays." The back says: "Just cuz tha season's ovah doesn't mean tha drinkin's done," and has all the schools listed in the shape of a goal post.

Regardless of whether you buy a shirt, "school-specific flare" is strongly encouraged, n'kay?
