CommunityBuzz! - NYC Cinco De Mayo DO May 5, 2012

As there will be thousands of people descending on NYC for 5 d Mayo, I have taken the liberty of organizing a DO around one of the biggest bar crawls in the U.S. Breakfast will be held at Empanada Mama so that by 11am, we head dowtown to pick up our bracelets and enjoy the drinks. Very cheap beer and tequila all day at over 150 bars so there will be plenty of new people to meet, great food and drinks to be had, and great memories to creat. Sneakers and flats advised as I suspect there will be a good amount of walking.

That is the website to register. We will be meeting up at the Village Pour house

welcome back to FT! ;) seems like you can buy a 2 day pass for about 8 bucks to get discounted drinks... it's only 2 bucks but then almost 5 bucks in convenience fees... :mad::rolleyes:

Count me in since I'll be flying off to Europe later that day :D

The fees are kinda whack but it more then pays for itself.

Damn...Cinqo de Mayo is my birthday & I live in NYC - but I'm flying to London that day!

I usually try to give a bit more then 5 1/2 weeks notice on my DO's...enjoy London!

Happy (early) birthday!!

I'm sure that I'll have plenty of homework to do for the next couple weeks until the end of the semester as well, so I can't take the day out for drinking unfortunately. Plus, the giant crowd of drunk people scene isn't really my bag. :( I get mad enough having to deal with all the screaming wasted college kids on St. Patty's when I'm trying to grab lunch!

I'm in. Ticket purchased.

I've never done an FT meetup, but might be game for this.
I have work in PHL 01-03May, and heading to my apt in Paris after that, but perhaps I could stay over for part of weekend in NYC and come play.

I'll look at website about it then?

Since both of you have to study, I would say come out for the breakfast before the drinking...it will be a nice n relaxed location with some great food...

That's not a bad idea... although if I'm already there I'll want to stay for the whole thing :D Would make for a fantastic study break though. I better check if I have anything else that day... this could be fun! My first bar crawl and my second DO :cool:

You'll miss DOs and MRs...oh wait no you won't you crazy.

For my two studious kiddies, let me know if Breakfast works for you all.

I should be able to make breakfast. I'm thinking I'll get most of my schoolwork done this weekend, so I can take a couple hours to meet up.

It's really getting down to the wire, but it depends on if I hear back from any other schools. I'm in the process of transferring, and I'm going to FL to visit some schools down there this weekend; if I hear from anyone else between now and the 4th I'll likely go visit them the weekend of the DO :( I'll keep yall posted...

-J.

I'm actually going to be in town that weekend! I've got a few hours of a break in between a wedding. It's probably enough time for just one of the bars. Do they rope off a certain area or could I just go?

You can just come. I will PM you my number next week so you can keep in touch that saturday...

Just a heads up that I may be a few mins late to breakfast, depends on how long the bus takes. I think I should be fine, but you never know. Anyway, I will be there!

Sorry to get back to all yall so late but count me out :( I'm picking up a friend at EWR the night before (coming in from PEK via SFO) and I have to be out on the island at 1pm. Like I said, yall have fun and don't cause too much trouble! And (hopefully) count me in for next time :)

Oh and btw I heard from another school! I'm taking my mom out to SLC next weekend so she can see it for herself!

-J.

Hopefully it works out for you bro.

nifty: we will be there till 1030am so you should have plenty of time.

As I have always maintained a level of trust with my DO, here is my number: 646-334-6187. Keep me posted as to what time you get there (or in the case of armatteus, what time he wakes up!) as things should go smoothly...

Perfect. I think they usually over-estimate how long it takes in the morning, so I'm expecting to be there exactly on time, but you never know!

See you guys tomorrow :)

Not so sure about tomorrow have a lot of work to get done. Maybe I'll be able to swing by during the day at some point..

Having breakfast with NiftyKnitter, Jfkeze and a few of my friends at Empanada Mama.

When the rest of you are around, hit me up.
