It's looking very likely that we will be selling out of mugs, so I would highly encourage you to buy online tonight before we have to turn off the presale option. 

Intuition just opened, Bold City has them as evidenced by Lunican's picture and Andy over at European Street just arrived to work so they can all sell you mugs tonight as well as they all have a limited supply.  You don't want to miss out tomorrow. 

This is going to be a VERY good time.

Just went online and purchased my mug.  Looking forward to tomorrow!

Btw, where do I pick up my mug if I ordered online?  Thanks!

We'll be at the First Guaranty Bank parking lot to pickup any pre-sales.

Intuition had NONE last night and no one had informed the bartenders about them. Maybe tonight will be different!

Another whirlwind adventure with NM (No Mas!) (No Mas!) No it wasn't an all day kayak paddle with North Miami but rather an adventure to make sure we had our MUG for the PK festival. An early call to Field and the early pickup locations led to a call to North Miami to get our Crawl on early.

We took our strategy to Bold City Brewery and scored not only our mugs but a taste testing shot from our new mugs that libated our pallets. I went with the Dukes and NM had the 1901. We're crawlin.  Thank you Robin. With our Mugs we were contemplating a local eatery but instead a quick call to Robert's eatery and we are opting for the quick hot dog cart fare. We called our orders in and when we arrived we each had the sausage dog, beverage, and some chicken wings. It was a late meal and Robert waited for us and really had us covered. Thank you NM for the generous  treat and the opportunity to meet Robert another Hogans Creek kayak paddler. Robert was off to his second job.
Field I still have that Gift certificate for Robert's that you won in that last cleanup drawing. Its all yours but if I can ever do anything to help coordinate this dining experience just let me know. I'm there for you.

Being in District 7 and in the Springfield area we thought why not just check on Hogans Creek in Klutho and Confederate Park. Got out in the armory parking lot and spied a shopping cart off the bridge in Confederate Park. It was a high outgoing tide.

We then took it to Washington and Beaver and then behind the casket factory and checked out the beautiful sand launch under Duval St.

Bold City Brewery see you again in less than 24 hours.

8.5 Hours until The Festival begins!!!. 

I plan to start the evening with a Hans Tanzler from Whiteway's. Next I'll wash it down with a Sweetwater 420 and some fried pickles from Jackson's.  I'll finish my meal with a black and white cookie and a stout from E-Street.  After that I'll hop on a pedi-cab and head down to BC and Intuition for some $2 beers, and finally I'll close out the night at Carmine's with some $2 drafts.  Not a bad Friday.

Get your $5 mugs while we still have some in stock!!!

Correction, 7.5 Hours!!  This day keeps getting better and better.

So I'm going to be heading out to this event this evening.  I read that you will be at the bank to hand out the pre-ordered mugs.  I won't be leaving my office till around 6pm, how long will you folks be waiting for the pre-orders to be picked up before you head off for the merriment yourselves? 

Will there be any mass groupings of MJ.com folks that I might be able to meet/tag along/hang with?  I haven't been to any of the events yet due to back surgery a few months back.  Thanks!

We will be there until the mugs sell out and all the pre-sales have checked in and picked up their mugs, but not later than 9. You can still pick-up or buy a mug after 9, but you'll have to track us down. This will STILL be a good deal though, as many places will still be running their specials, and Carmines will just be getting going with their blowout deal (ALL drafts - and they've only got quality ones, you won't find any Bud or Coors drafts there - will be $2 from 9pm til close).

**ATTENTION**
If you purchase a mug online ahead of time (http://www.metrojacksonville.com/pubcrawl), you can pick it up from the First Guaranty parking lot on King Street.

They DO currently have them. They and Bold city have half a dozen or so left. E-Street has sold out, but we are working on getting some more to them.

If you can match my previously described itinerary and add Kickback's and Bella Sera to the mix somehow, I will reward you with a prize of some sort.  Photo evidence is required.

As a reminder, here is my schedule:

I plan to start the evening with a Hans Tanzler from Whiteway's. Next I'll wash it down with a Sweetwater 420 and some fried pickles from Jackson's.  I'll finish my meal with a black and white cookie and a stout from E-Street.  After that I'll hop on a pedi-cab and head down to BC and Intuition for some $2 beers, and finally I'll close out the night at Carmine's with some $2 drafts. 

Add:

A well drink at Loft AND Rogue
Wine at Bella Sera
A beer from kickbacks.

We'll call it the Ironman Decathlon.

Also, I'd like to at some point see the guys from Critical Mass challenge the 501st to a dance off.  That would make my night, or better yet my year.

I'm heading down there in about :30 to pick up my mug and celebrate the end of the federal fiscal year.  See you all out there!  ;D :o
