So I was convinced that I should go to PAX this August, and since I'm told it's not really feasible to cram a ton of PAXgoers looking to get drunk into a hotel room, I'm going to organize an open bar crawl. The theory is that there's so many bars near the WSCTC that even if we get ridiculous Sealab-style numbers showing up, we'll be able to split into as many teams as needed, so everyone who wants to attend can. New more updated information: So I made some changes to Doc's route just as an example of what we would have to do to make this work out. This is on an 8:00PM to 2:00AM time schedule making a six hour full crawl, with two 3-hour mini-routes. Full route Pre-Dick's short route Post-Dick's short route (Note: I removed the Elysian for this example because 8 stops is one too many, but any other bar could be removed instead if that's more worthwhile) If there's a big turnout, half of the people attending would be going backwards (Starting at Six Arms) and meeting up at Dick's in the center, so half-route people could choose a pass on either side, early or late. That would basically make the schedule: (X:XX XX - Group A / Group B ) 8:00 PM - The Chapel / Six Arms 8:50 PM - The Stumbling Monk / Linda's 9:40 PM - Cafe Metropolitan / Barca 10:30 PM - Dick's --Midpoint. People leave/arrive. 11:20 PM - Barca / Cafe Metropolitan 12:10 AM - Linda's / The Stumbling Monk 1:00 AM - Six Arms / The Chapel 1:50 AM - Crawl ends/Last Call Throw in some extra minutes for travel time because they aren't equal distances and it sounds like it could work old OP: Spoiler: show spoiler hide spoiler Tentative time/date: Thursday night, sometime after the dinner or whatever. Tentative locations: I don't know, I've never even been to Seattle. And there's what I need help on. In searching around trying to do some research on this, I've found there's a pretty big handful of bars just west of the wsctc, but there's always the possibility that some of them are complete shitholes. So for those of you in the area, if you want to offer some suggestions or feedback, that would be awesome. So far I've got the following that seem to be close enough to make a pretty decent route: Blarney Stone Pub Alibi Room Amber Sonya's Bar and Grill (No website - yelp page) Whisky Bar Nite Lite Lounge (No site, NWSource) Kells Irish Pub Shorty's Crocodile (er...I guess this disappeared, so that's out) Lava Lounge Rendezvous Taphouse Total: 11

[18:13:24] <@O> the 2008 revolve memorial bar crawl I am there.

I will be there as well. Always happy to down a pint in memory of another fallen warrior. RIP revolve

If I had a say in it, Kell's. Last year at PAX, both my friends, me and some guys we hung out with most of PAX. Went there on Sunday after the doors closed. The food was awesome, the servers was great and the atmosphere was calming. I know you can also book parties there. And I believe it can hold up to around 100-200(maybe).

I'm so in on this. Bar crawls can be rather fun, and I have yet to see any of the Seattle ones.

Kell's is made of god and win. Probably the most authentic Irish pub in the area. EDIT: Also, Chapel Bar for the best martinis.

Crawls begin and end at the Taphouse. Distance is measured in beers, not meters.

I might join in on this depending on schedule.

If i'm there i'll go. It will be nice to drink Fosters for once.

There needs to be at least one shithole to stop at. Also, the Elephant and Castle is a few blocks from the WSCTC and was pretty nice when we were there last year.

I'm in. I've got my flight, hotel, and tickets already. So I'll be there.

I'm with maradine about the Taphouse. Even I can find a beer I'll like there. I'll add folks in search of some classy atmosphere and maybe something to eat with their booze should be happy with Taphouse and Sonya's. Taphouse is kinda business lounge, where Sonya's is pretty cute.

Perhaps the OP should be updated with the specifics on each bar as in if they have food, what time the kitchen closes, price range for food and booze, approximate capacity and how busy they are on a Thursday night. This might require some Seattle local field agents to do some recon. I know it's a big sacrifice, going to the bar on a Thursday to check it out, but I'm sure a few of you will step up to the responsibility.

I updated the OP with links to the bars websites if they have any, so most of that information should be available there. I can put it into the OP for reference sometime, but, not right now.

The girl and I may be interested but I'll probably just follow whatever group I can find into the local drinking establishments.

If you do that, you'll probably end up on the pub crawl anyway. Last year on our way to the movie, the crowd just kept getting bigger and bigger as we got closer. I can imagine this crawl will operate on many of the same principles.

Although I'm taking the train up, and it will more then likely get there late(11pm-1am). I would still be down for a few drinks. During the Div's Pre-PAX strut.

Firstly, this is a smashing idea. I'm there. Secondly, ElectricTurtle and Highfire speak true: If I had a say in it, Kell's.

Yes, and depends on how hot the other female is. Or how drunk you get me. :-D

Lord I'm going to need to bring an extra couple hundred just for this.
