Unofficial Techshow Pub Crawl

This Thursday (April 2, 2009), I'll be leading the second annual Unofficial Techshow Pub Crawl at ABA's Tecshow.  We took a year off last year, but are back in 2009.

We'll meet up at the Hilton Chicago Lobby at 8 and head out for a few beers at 3-4 bars in the neighborhood.  Expect a great time, good fellowship and a hangover Friday morning.

UPDATE:  Here's the "agenda" for our evening:

7:30 - 8:00:  Meet in Hilton Lobby Bar
8:00 - 9:30:  South Loop Club, 1 E. Balbo Ave. (about a block from Hilton)
9:30 - 11:00:  Hackney's Printer's Row, 733 S. Dearborn
11:00 - 12:00: Villains Bar and Grill, 649 S. Clark
12:00 - ???:  Kitty O'Shea's in the Hilton Chicago

Here's the map:

If you want to join the group early, many of us will be convening at a Tweetup here.

To Insure Prompt Service

Not sure how this fits in with legal marketing and client service, but I found a fascinating article over at Epicurious.com about one man's attempt to bribe/tip his way into New York's trendiest restaurants. Thanks to Marginal Revolution for the link.
