Once at Harrah's you can gamble as much or as little as you choose. Money to gamble with is your own responsibility. You are responsible for your own winnings and losses. There will be reserved Texas Hold-Em tables waiting for our group when we arrive. Of course, feel free to take advantage of all the games and great atmosphere that Harrah's has to offer. At about 11pm we will get back on the shuttle busses and head back up to Duffy's. The great news about Duffy's is they have a deal with the hospital around the corner. There is a parking lot on Sheridan just north of Diversey that you can park in (St. Joe's Hospital lot).

PPC's 8th Annual 12 Bars of Christmas Lincoln Park Neighborhood Pub Crawl

Saturday, December 4, 2004

Starting time and bar TBA

The Tradition Continues! What started out in December of 1997 as just a handful of friends joking around that we should go a 12-Bar tear to kill time on a Friday night in Lincoln Park has mushroomed into one of the largest free pub crawls in the City of Chicago with the event attracting over 300+ participants in 2003!

Although there have been evolutionary changes along the way, like moving the event onto Saturday night (so more folks could attend), free wristbands, and of course, pre-negotiated drink specials, our core traditions remain the same... good friends, good drinks, good times, and even some free Santa Hats for the early birds.

And even though this event has grown to one of the largest private pub crawls in the city, to this day we don't collect one penny from our friends for this event, as we do not wish to make your charitable giving decision for you by collecting on someone else's behalf. We think it's great that others do (so please be generous to the charity of your choice), but that's just not what we're all about. We're here to party!

See you all there!
