This Saturday, a great friend of mine is putting on her annual pub crawl to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The crawl, which has been going since 2006, had 70 participants and raised $1,600 last year. The crawl will again be through the streets of Soulard with a new addition or two to the route this year. Cost is $10 and the first 60 will get a shirt.

Here’s the route:

One of the coolest parts of this crawl, year after year, is the great looking shirt. Too often, I see pub crawls go around with shirts that look almost worse than the ones that athletes pull on after they win a championship. These crawl shirts are better than this, this  and even this.

The crawl will start at iTap  at 7pm on Saturday. That’s where you will register and get your wristband (and shirt if you’re lucky). Between 7 and 8, you should enjoy beer  at either iTap or Epic next door. Epic will be offering a variety of food specials to give the participants some fuel for the night ahead.

At 8, the crawl will go to Molly’s for an hour.  Between 9p and Midnight, the crawl will spend time at Hammerstone’s, Shanti and 1860s, each for an hour.

At Midnight, crawl participants will parade their way to Llywelyn’s to finish out the night.

Epic has also been gracious enough to extend their specials until the end of the night to the group for late night dining.

All of the participating establishments will be offering specials to crawl participants. A representative from Boulevard Brewing Company will be following the crawl around getting participants specials at the various bars and handing out other goodies.

For more information on specials and whatnot, take a look at the Facebook page. For pictures from previous crawls, go here.
