Get excited, sots…it’s pub crawl season!

Now that the weather’s warming up, the progressive parties are coming out in full force, beginning with last weekend’s second annual Snuggie Pub Crawl. If you’re looking for something a little less, um, fuzzy, how ’bout the Zombie Pub Crawl, which returns from the dead on Saturday, April 24?

For $20, you’ll enjoy drinks specials at bars throughout Andersonville, including Simon’s,Mary’s Attic, @mosphere, In Fine Spirits and more from 2:30-8 p.m., all while dressed as an extra from “Thriller.” Folks got pretty into it last year, so don’t skimp on the makeup.

International Z-Day (Zombie Day) is this weekend, and there are several groups that are planning events to coordinate with it.

First, there the Official Z-Day 2010 events detailed on the ZDAY2010 website HERE (Scroll down for Chicago).

WE HAVE TWO EVENTS: Thursday, March 11th @ 7pm: We will be hosting a lecture followed by Q&A. There will be drinks, feel free to bring snacks, but this is more so an event to get people acquainted with the tenets of the movement, and to fill in some details to those who are somewhat familiar with the movement. Also, it will serve as a forum for exchanging ideas on how Chicago residents/members can make an impact, and how to most advantageously spread the word. Saturday, March 13th @ 10:00am: We will be hosting the Chicago official ZDay2010 event. This day will include screenings of the Zeitgeist Addendum on a large projected screen, as well as other relevant videos, a potluck, a lecture followed by Q&A, and live streaming of the NYC Zday 2010 Event. Also, it will serve as a forum for exchanging ideas on how Chicago residents/members can make an impact, and how to most advantageously spread the word. We sincerely hope to see you there. As an alternate to street parking, mass transit is nearby. Take the CTA Red Line to the Granville stop. Exit the station, turn right (east towards the lake), walk to the first stop sign (Granville/Winthrop) then cross Winthrop to the building entrance, one door down from the corner.
