 I couldn't make the first two for various reasons, but I am looking forward to this. I will be able to walk over to pick up the trolley at Jacksons, and then stumble home from the Rogue.

It's the most wonderful time of the month!

We will also be bringing in food trucks for this crawl, but that does not mean you shouldn't eat dinner before hand.  Once we get firm commitments they will be officially announced, but we hope to have 2 different trucks throughout the course of the night.

How is it that the pub crawl is able to effectively coordinate multiple trolley routes with JTA, utilize transient vendors effectively, incorporate multiple core neighborhoods, and bring vibrancy DT, but the city can't??  From this point forth I am going to refer to the pub crawl organizers as the JEDC.

Good one.  Just goes to show you don't have to wait on public entities or others to do things they get paid to do, but most likely don't understand how to effectively pull them off.  If you want change, get off the couch, get involved and make it happen!

Where do you intend to put food carts?

Nothing is set in stone... but one would potentially be San Marco and the other in Riverside.  They would comply with the city's regulations regarding transient vendors. etc.

The Loft was having the Mossfire food bus in the alley which was clearly illegal so just making sure that won't happen again.
