    So I noticed Challenge 2 has been posted.
    Challenge 2: Prepare For Trouble

    Pair up with an opponent and order them their least favorite beer, drink, or shot. And make it double. After your opponent drinks their two drinks they do the same for you. Then blast off at the speed of light.

    I personally feel like this can get dangerous, especially if someone considers their least favorite drink as something they can't handle or something gross. Will there be restrictions on this challenge? I don't really want to see anyone's night ruined from drinking something bad.

    I think there is a universal ban on things such as "cement mixers" as they only exist to make someone vomit.

    Right in the OP there are restrictions on drinks. Other than that, consider this a Gentleman's/Gentlewoman's challenge.

    There you go folks, not only did I think it; someplace deep down I knew it was a banned drink.

    Uh, the only Stadium's I can find on Google Maps are QUITE a stumble away (like on the other side of the BCEC).

    Can anyone give me a Google Maps link, or perhaps just a name that Google will understand better?

    Stadium used to be McFadden's.

    I'm working on maps of the full routes as we speak.

    When using Google maps, you can still search for McFadden's which gives the correct address for Stadium.

    Oh man I'm so excited.

    When can we expect Challenge #4 to be up too?

    Also just to be sure, both (for example) Blue teams starts at the same bar and finishes at the same bar as each other right?

    Challenge 4 will be up soon.

    Gold & Silver group start at the same bar and at the end up the night they come back together for the last bar.

    In all fairness it is honesty here too, don't say you hate something you're not willing to drink.

    Personally I hate rum with a passion but I'm absolutely willing to do 2 shots of it for the sake of hilarity this Thursday. Apparently I hate myself that much.

    I generally subscribe to Wheaton's Law on this. We are here to have fun, you probably don't know that person, and don't be a douche. I don't think "Dangerous" the same as gross.

    And for the record, I hate tequila. But every year, I end up doin' tequila because someone just HAS to. And I'm a people person. :)

    OK. I'm good with this. I just wanted to make sure that if things ended poorly, it was because of many good drinks and not 1 awful drink. ;)

    Totally just looked at the routes instead and hopefully will have a chance to get one of these when we meet up with yellow gold.

    A couple years ago the legendary challenge was a double shot of jäger which I hate with a passion. I tried to dutifully do my shots but gagged on the second and wore it all down the front of me :( To this day, the team red shirt I bought and wore that night has a faint stain on the front.

    That... Would be amazing! We would probably have to rent some space somewhere. I figure there are some places that can handle that volume.

    I'm assuming no nearby bar can do it. But maybe a place that sells tickets or something. PAX really does need a Sunday night thing, IMHO.


    EDIT: And also a nice quiet corner for Snorlax

    Don't worry, Faneuil Hall area is super easy to navigate. After the bar crawl you'll be the very best, like no one ever was at getting around that area.

    I disagree, if you are awesome at getting around the area after the bar crawl then you did it wrong. lol

    It's just that easy. Even drunk you will manage to get around.

    There is always the option of just walking into a bar big enough and hoping we all get in.

    I can think of a few bars in the area that might be big enough to hold some of the 400+ Pokémon. A few that come to mind is Hennesey's right in the Faneuil Hall area which has two floors to it. The other, Greatest Bar, is about a ten minute walk north of the where the crawl is, around the TD Garden area.

    Challenge 4: Pokemon World

    Order your opponent a mixed drink that matches your colors team. Your opponent does the same for you.

    Now I have to think of green drinks...

    Outside of Appletinis. I can be more creative than that.

    @ErickaJo It was just Saint Patty's so ask a bartender - I'm sure they are well aware of every possibility. Personally, I'm partial to anything with Midori in it. Or a Green Giraffe.
