    The Fanueil Hall area can handle quite a few bar crawls at a time, I wouldn't worry about crowding

    While this may be true of your average 10-20 person bar crawl, this is quite untrue of the PokeCrawl. We have issues just fitting *our* crawl into Faneuil bars effectively.

    It depends on the bar. Can you confirm this is happening then?

    Just for information's sake, folks:
    PAX East last year was March 22-24. The official PAX East pokecrawl thread went up in early March, by my guesstimate (comparing last year's unofficial pokecrawl thread, which was closed in February, with the first post in the official thread in March). And March Madness kicked off the same day as the pokecrawl, so the pubs were HOPPING. Plus, and correct me if I'm wrong here, another pubcrawl was occurring the same evening as well (I THINK it was in the same area, but may not be correct)

    That means, about 3-4 weeks prior to the event. This week marks 5 weeks prior to PAX. Don't start worrying until say, next week or the week after, is my feeling on the matter.

    The Pokecrawl cannot be stopped. It is forever or until it evolves into something else. But seriously, there's time.

    I think the main thing most are forgetting is that who gives a goose about the other crawls? They aren't OUR crawl. #TeamGreen

    Kitty O'Shea's is gone so no worries there.

    did something take its place?

  • Account4ThisAccount4This BostonRegistered User regular
    It was bought out and last time I walked by was still under renovations. New owners wanted to open it up as a 'classier' establishment. Who knows how long that will last, but I haven't spoken with anyone from there in a while.

    Good Riddance.

    Is that the one where leftover people (aka I was one of them) walked across the street to some other bar? I liked that other bar to be honest.

    Personally, I felt Clarke's was overcrowded for us and Kitty O'Shea's felt like it still had a lot of space. Granted, the other team at Kitty O'Shea's seemed like less people to me.

    There's a lot more to Clarke's than most people used last year, a whole second side bar that was practically empty. I kept trying to tell Red B that there was more bar, but nobody budged. Oh well.

    The Thread bar crawl was the same night last year and the Bell in Hand overlapped with both. Thread crawl is moving to Seaport near convention center this year, so that shouldn't happen again unless people get REALLY lost.

    A bar crawl at hotel bars? Those will not be cheap. Glad we're staying where we're at.

    She says, before the thread goes up. Crap. I hope I didn't jinx anything :neutral_face:

    The seaport is also the name of the area, not just the hotel. I assume they mean the seaport district (which is right next to the Seaport hotel).

    I don't know the area well. I'm really only there once a year. I hope they have a great time :D

  • angrymonkeyfightangrymonkeyfight Captain Awesome Boston, MARegistered User regular
    According to the Eventbrite, they mean seaport locations like Whiskey Priest (bar) and Harpoon (brewery).

    I'm sure we'll see something soon. The timing is right, at least.
