Major pub crawl

One man's mission: to visit 1,000 bars in a year.

I want to try this sometime.

Wow, that will be quite a feat to average 3 bars a day. Although, in the story it says that he once hit 12 in one day. I guess with days like that, he gets to take a day off once in a while. It doesn't sound like he is doing too much of that however.

Ok, dude's my new hero! I'll raise a glass to him tonight.

It's so refreshing to see that there are still goal-oriented people around. (Hic!)

Hmmm... I wonder if there could be a similar feat. Perhaps not by just one of us, but say a pub crawl of a different sort. We list the bars we go to, and we must provide proof; a digital picture would probably suffice. We need to hit a certain number goal by whatever deadline we give ourselves. 100 days? I don't know. I just woke up. Don't mind me. But if someone puts out some sort of cocktail challenge, I'm down for it.

Maybe it doesn't have to be bars, maybe it can just be different drinks..

Hmm...

I love this idea, Erica!

Maybe this belongs in the confession thread, but I'll go ahead and 'fess up here (since this is where the party people are). When my husband and I travel, we can easily hit 5 bars (or more) in a day. My husband would love this challenge. Maybe I'll get started today, they have a pretty nice bar at the McAfee Coliseum/A's game. I'll bring the camera.

Maybe it could be the kind of challenge where we see how many places we can go before Labor Day...?

Gah - I'm still waking up! I'm no good at this!

I can think of only two places (that I would find interesting) where a goodly amount of bars could be visited in a short amount of time: Epcot and the Las Vegas Strip, both of which entail leaving the state....

Seems like any other local Southern Californian pub crawl would involve an awful lot of driving to and fro.

Will this list only include swanky places or are dives allowed?
