The Cosby Sweater Bar Crawl recap, buttons still available

Oh what a time was had by all, this past Saturday, at Baltimore’s (Earth’s?) first ever Cosby Sweater Bar Crawl. From 4pm on starting at Dark Horse in Canton, the sweaters came flowing through the door and by the time we had all jammed our sweatery bodies into Bad Decisions around 8pm there were at least 70 folks, some of which actually donated! Just kidding, pretty much everyone donated. Baltimore Area Rescue and Care Shelter will be receiving a tidy donation of $200 (after donating separately to some folks engaged in Strut Your Mutt, also benefiting BARCS) as soon as I launder deposit the cash. Kudos to all of the bars involved – Dark Horse, Gin Mill and Kisling’s – for being so attentive when 60+ people suddenly showed up at their establishments early on a Saturday! And a very special thanks to John at Bad Decisions for making a delicious menu of Jello-inspired booze creations, they were a huge success with the crowd, at least I think I remember people liking them.

With any luck, I’d like to make this an annual thing much like South Baltimore’s Snuggie Bar Crawl, so around this time next year I’ll start poking around to see if there’s any interest in a repeat.

In the meantime, a slew of folks who attended the event were curious about obtaining extra Cosby Buttons (a token for your donation, along with a free shot) and I’ve decided to open them up for reorder; since they’re relatively easy to make, I figure mailing a few off here and there for a nominal donation of $3 a pop couldn’t hurt – after this week (aside from right here) they’ll be available on the Yardsale page along with a few other designs. Stay tuned! For now, if you’d like a Cosby Button of your very own you can feel free to order one or more below, just specify which one you’d like in the cart. Come next year, they’ll be collector’s items!

Buttons!
