qos_75 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I would have been up for that, although I will be in London, so I will need to wait for the next one. Out of interest, what is the running order of boozers? I take it the Central bar is the last call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qos_75 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 6pm start for SEVENTEEN pubs? Surely going to be cutting it tight to get it finished Three boozers an hour seems ambitious, particularly if there is a squad of folk going. Most of the the pubs mentioned will only have one or two bar staff on at most. With other customers looking to get served, and drinking time slowing after the first few, along with walking between pubs ( albeit they are not too far apart) factored in, I reckon 12 - 14 pubs would be achievable between 6.00 -1-00pm. A 3.00pm kick off on the otherhand would be much more civilised. Mind you, as I am not going, my thoughts can be discounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The template for the Subcrawl was getting a 'beer buddy', it saves time and there are less bodies at the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair enough, but it is still only the one or two bar staff serving so there will still be a bottleneck, so to speak. Mind you, if it is tried and tested who am I to cast judgement. Going by the schedule, I would be off of the pints after pub three and on to the Havana Club 7 and cokes if I wanted to keep up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightswoodBear Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 There's zero chance of getting 17 boozers in on a 6pm K.O. The original (and obviously superior) Subcrawl had a 12 noon start and we fell in the last boozer after 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grim O'Grady Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 I did suggest imbibing a 1/2 pint in each pub it's still over a gallon of ale & obviously the drinking time would be quicker. 2ndly some of the pubs are at best described as 1/2 pint pubs. Although some scoffed at that idea. I'm no a spirits drinker but what damage could drinking 17 drams? The reason it's a 6pm ko is that it gives the Spartans & Ed City crew time to get down from Ainslie Park & those at the Hibs game time to get from Easter Rd.
