Repeal Day Pub Crawl

Last year on December 5th I came across repealday.org, a site dedicated to the memory of the day Prohibition was repealed in the US. At the time I thought to myself what a great reason to go out and drink. Turns out finding excuses to drink is a sign of alcoholism. So what? What’s your point? Anyways, I marked the day on my calendar and was set to celebrate the day in 2009.

Then, like most things on my calendar, I forgot about it.

A couple weeks ago a buddy of mine suggested we take a day off work and go get drunk. Hey Brody, have you heard finding reasons to drink is a sign of alcoholism? Just saying… So I pulled out the iPhone and started looking for ideal dates and noticed I had something blocking out the entire day of December 5th… what could this be? Why, it’s Repeal Day!

That was all the urging I needed. I set up an event on Facebook and was off. So far we’ve got 15 confirmed and many more mabyes for the day. I’m pretty excited. Some of us have even found clothing from the 20s/30s to wear. If you would like to join us, we’ll be starting at Vickery’s off Crescent and doing a pub crawl through Midtown. Should be a blast. I’ll post updates afterwards… if I survive.
