The Bar Crawl Survival Kit – What you need to know

Bar Crawls or Pub Crawls, as many of us call them, can sometimes get pretty intense depending on the holiday, the company organizing them, or the charity/cause behind them. Christmas, breast cancer, St. Patrick’s Day, Valentine’s Day, and Halloween are among the biggest bar crawl events in the country. Depending on the city, the area, and the competition, these events can have a few thousand participants! Whether it’s a DC Santa bar crawl, or a San Diego zombie pub crawl, they are all guaranteed to bring people together for some fun.

Project DC Events cannot talk for other states, but here in DC, people always look forward to them! Who doesn’t love starting the day early, getting dressed up in a themed outfit, meeting up with your friends, and heading out to the bars to enjoy ALL DAY drink specials and meet a ton of new people, while going from bar to bar?!

Here are some tips to be safe at these events, make sure you last the entire day, and of course avoid that terrible hangover the next day!

Make sure you eat and “drink” before you check-in

It’s a drinking law that you must not start drinking with an empty stomach because you will not last! Always have a good breakfast/lunch before you go on a bar crawl. Replenish your body with water as well! We lose water when we go to sleep, so make sure you drink fluids and you are well-hydrated before you embark on your fun journey!

So long “Call Me Maybe”, Hello “Gangnam Style”

 
If you follow trends, viral videos, and the next big hit when it comes to music and dance, you may have heard of of PSY’s – “Gangnam Style.” The video has been on YouTube for only 6 weeks and has well over 65 million views worldwide!

PSY is a Korean pop superstar that is getting a lot of press and recognition in the United States for his infectious song and dance video “Gangnam Style.” The song features a catchy electro-pop beat, and an easy to learn dance that many people are calling “the next Macarena.”

I knew this song had the potential to go mainstream in America and the DC bars and clubs as soon as it was released; however, it wasn’t until this past weekend, when I attended the Redskins vs. Colts preseason game at FedEX Field (Hail! by the way) that I saw it performed live by some of the tailgating fans. After asking friends if they had heard of the song, half of them replied with “I have heard it at the bars” or “I heard it when I was out.” At that moment I knew, “Gangnam Style” had landed in Washington DC.

 
With that said.. Welcome “Gangnam Style” AND so long “Call Me Maybe”
