This Whole Snuggie Thing is Getting a Little Carried Away

A few cities are hosting a "Snuggie Pub Crawl," wherein a group of idiots goes around drinking at different bars whilst wearing their Snuggies.

San Francisco is hosting their Snuggie Pub Crawl on March 20, and Chicago has one scheduled for April 18. Dates are still TBD for New York, L.A., Seattle, D.C., Atlanta, Denver, Dallas, Austin, and Boston.

I know there are a lot of Portlanders who eat this kind of shit up, but let me to be the first to say: Let's not do this here. Please. Okay?

I'm more of a Slanket man, anyway.

What the fuck is a Snuggie? Apparently I've been living in blissful ignorance of these things. Thanks for ruining it.

Any man wearing one of these things in public (or at home) cannot complain about being punched in the face. The police wouldn't even write a report.

If I see anyone on a pub crawl in one of these I cannot be held responsible for my actions....

Screw the snuggie and the slanket. I'm a footed PJ's man! See http://www.adultfootedpjs.com/ and http://www.jumpinjammerz.com/ for adult versions of our favorite thing to run around in as kids. Well, ok, at least MY favorite thing to run around in as a kid. We should do a footed PJ pub crawl.

This would be a lot more fun if everyone was wearing the same color snuggie.
