Pub crawl with your Snuggie

Yes you read that right. A group of Chicagoans is scheduling Snuggie pub crawls in major cities across the US to raise money for an orphange in Tanzania. Here's the description straight from their website:

In response to the stunning public embrace of the warm and cuddly Snuggie™, the SnuggiePubCrawl.com Team is hosting the first-ever Snuggie™ Pub Crawl in Chicago. Even though it's just a blanket with sleeves, we're sure that you'll enjoy a winter evening spent drinking with friends and the Snuggie™.

I documented the absurdity of the Snuggie a few weeks ago, but the thought of barloads of drunk 20 somethings walking around Chicago wrapped in a backwards robe amuses the hell out of me. From their website it looks like only the Chicago date is finalized, but there are about a dozen other cities on the schedule. If you're interested in helping with the logistics, I'm sure they would love the support. So support your "blanket with sleeves" proudly, if that's possible, and join other drunk Snuggie lovers for a good cause.

Thanks to Jim Nichols at iMedia for covering this.
