Event Description

Roll out the barrel and put your best skates on for this is going to be a night of revelry and madness not yet witnessed here in the Chun.

We’ll be seeing the night in with a personally guided tour by two ChangChun’s finest bar and pub connoisseurs, Garrett the Exorcist and Mahatma Jack. We will be ushered from one great night spot to the next, starting at the grand old of Pete's Russian Cafe and then a medley of other taverns, 8 in all to find ourselves ending up at everyone’s favourite last call, The Happy Home.

So bring your friends and leave your inhibitions behind. Specially priced drinks at all locations offering variety and value for money and 20-23 minutes at each pub, when the bell tolls. There will be nibbles and challenges, laughs and of course the great chance to become well-acquainted with the many watering holes in the Sun Shine city and the many sunny characters it boasts.

Cheers and see you on the night. YAG UP!!!

Dave, if you want pizza during the bar crawl, then at some point peel off from the group and go to Paul's for some pizza.  It's up to you. Feel free and knock yourself out. Honestly, I saw Jack put together the schedule and work with some of the bar owners to set up the deals.  He put in alot of work and effort into the event. To change the schedule at this late date, potentially could disrupt the whole event, which in turn could make CCF look bad.  In addition, making chnages now would force Jack to put in even more work through re-visiting the places and talking to the managers about schedule changes, something he should not have to do. Therefore, Dave, if you do not like the schedule, then don't come.  Freedom of choice, baby.

We all appreciate what Paul and his pizza has done for the community, and yes, there is no better combination than pizza and beer, I agree. Yet, lets work together to support the businesses that will be operational in the long run and who deserve their fair chance in the spotlight too. Dave, I suggest you give a hearty farewell to Paul's on behalf of the greater CCF community. You are the man to do it.

Hey, pizza and beer go together, there couldn't be a better match.  I've drank many a beer or wine at Pauls.  And I thought the original idea was to introduce people to the best of Changchun.  Last years bar crawl was good, the last 2 stops being Paul's and Pete's.

Don't think the pizza idea will work Downtown Dave.....the object is to keep the food and drink down...not coming back up!

D.D.

Maybe you can have (1) pizza delivered to each bar on the route 30 minutes before the bar-crawlers arrive.

Paul's Pizza rocks dave, we all know this. But this is a bar crawl, not a restaurant crawl, we thank you for your opinons and your comments will be noted in the log.

Propose adding Paul's Pizza after Pete's Russian cafe.  Last years bar crawl had a stop there and we celebrated with slices and beer.  Paul's has the best pizza in town and has always been an asset to the CC community.  It is also strategically positioned between the Russian cafe and the FP.

Paul will be leaving Changchun next week to work as a civil engineer in Montreal, so it may be our last chance to see him off.
