ABOUT PUBSPRAWL
Started in the last years of the 20th Century, PubSprawl, once an embarassedly unnamed pubcrawl is now an embarassed named pubcrawl and still going strong! Now with 11 years behind it, PubSprawl shows no signs of stopping.
What started as a group of 20 friends drinking the day away has quickly grown into a group of 275+ friends drinking the day away. Now that's progress!
If you've discovered this website (whether told, emailed, or simply typed in the wrong porn address) you're now invited to tag along.
Get familiar with the rules and route, check out this year's beloved King & Queen, revisit the fond hazy memories of PubSprawl past, or check out the pages dedicated to Seamus O'Ffend, Ireland's greatest dirty leprechaun comic, and revel in some dirty limericks, jokes, or toasts!
ABOUT THIS WEBSITE

No strangers to having a good time, Beatnik Turtle has been writing and performing around the Chicago area for a decade. They've combined their knack for writing catchy, contagious melodies with off-the-wall lyrics in three full-length albums, television shows, podcasts, theater productions, and TV commercials.
And now they're busy releasing one song for each day of 2007 for free at their www.thesongoftheday.com site!

"I'm a firm believer of living 'off the grid'" remarked Anonymous318. "I don't have email, I avoid social networks, and shun the internet. You won't find me anywhere." Except at this year's PubSprawl. [MORE...]
Competing "BarSprawl" Tells PubSprawl To Go To Hell
Feb 17, 2007
Although the PubSprawl is now in its 11th year, many in Chicago want to remind St. Patrick's Day revelers that the PubSprawl is not the only game in town. I met up with the co-founders of a competing bar crawl, the BarSprawl (www.barsprawl.com), at a Dunkin Donuts in Rogers Park.
"So what that PubSprawl is in it's 11th year?" screams Colin Kolakowski in between sips of Dunkin Donuts coffee. "Me and Pete are also in our 11th year too..."[MORE].
