Keys to surviving pub crawl Know your limits It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement. The air is crisp, the sun is shining and the beer is flowing. You’re dancing, people are shouting, your shirt is off and your mom calls. Reality comes crashing down. You haven’t looked at the clock in hours. The sun is lower now than it was last time you checked. The 30-pack of beer you bought is empty and what’s that? It’s coming, it rises from down low and percolates up, up through the stomach, through the chest, out the throat, onto the ground and you realize you have puked. Don’t be that person, know your limits. Have a buddy People are malicious. It’s sad to say, but they are. Keep a buddy close. You never know when, why or what will happen. Best of all, it’s nice to have a buddy to share the good times with. Dress appropriately The weather for this year’s Crawl looks perfect, 50 degrees and sunny. That doesn’t mean it won’t get cold later on. With your fully charged phone, you’re going to want to take those selfies we were talking about earlier: And what looks worse in a picture than somebody else’s sweatshirt? Nothing. Make sure you have all your appropriate clothing: boots, hoodies, pants and for the audacious, a beanie. Have fun Pub Crawl only comes around twice a year. You work hard; you deserve this. Meet new people, challenge yourself on the dance floor, go for the quan, hit that na na, be you. Keep yourself and your best interests in mind. Remember these important steps and we’ll all have fun.
