MeFi IRL

The Blue Frog is shutting down in January and there's a pretty good chance the owners will have alienated the staff so much that everyone will throw in the towel before then, so this might be the last First Wednesday. If you've ever been, you'll want to join us this time. If you've never been, you must join us this time. [more inside]

IF the Cubs make it to the World Series and IF the World Series makes it to game 7, it will all happen at the Goat. Our Goat. The first Wednesday in November strikes again. We are the chosen ones. Well, poop. [more inside]

I definitely need one. You probably do, too. By now, you know the drill and if you are not participating, you should be ashamed of yourself. Tiny beers and foodstuffs from the grill (free pickles!) at the Original Billy Goat Tavern, lower Michigan Avenue, starting at around 6:00pm. Then adjournment to the Frog for increasingly poor decisions and much awesome.

Remember--the days of Goatening are numbered. Be there or be really sad you were not there. [more inside]
