    4th Annual 2012 PhoenixNAP Bar Crawl!!! Monday at 7PM.

    It is that time of the year again where we start preparing our livers for the annual bar crawl!

    Last year we had around 125-160 people show up and network over a beer or 7.

    This event has proven year over year to be a fantastic icebreaker so if you are new to the show you should come and meet a couple hundred new friends.

    This year is going to be bigger and better than ever! We have not yet released the full details but I wanted to let you guys know when it was so that you can make sure you're in town and ready!


    If you have any pictures from last year please feel free to post them below!

    And yes, I will be trying to not lose my voice - that is also becoming an annual tradition it seems.

    Let me make sure I understand this correctly: I get to go to the opening social, drink, then go out with you and drink some more?

    Looking forward to it! I attended last year (it was on a Sunday then IIRC) and it was a lot of fun.

    The PhoenixNAP bar crawl is legendary - not just for the beers, but also the great team (and business) behind it.

    Jordan, stick down 2 for Othello - we'd love to make it 4 in a row :-)

    Of course we do! All are welcome drinkers or not. The non drinkers job is to take pictures of, and make fun of the drinkers

    Trust me - I was as sad to hear that it conflicted as everyone else.

    Next year I am going to send an email out to all the party holders and get us better organized as this seems to happen every year.

    We are going to just run the event as normal, I assume people will come and go and we will try to make it known where we are.

    The people who were with us the first year will remember we had an amazing time with only 50 people so I am not worried about how many show up. We will drink, talk, drink, network, drink, and have a great time.

    Turns out Dreamhost is doing their party on the same night also:
    http://dreamhost.com/hostingconparty2012/

    So now that's 3 parties on the 16th. This is going to be a tough decision. I hope I can make it to all of them

    well I registered us for Dreamhost as well - but it is probably bottom of the priority list.

    It's a tough call, but I'm in for the crawl.

    I don't know where exactly we'll be starting, but it looks like Boylston St has at least two stops on the Green line -- which also happens to stop at the convention center. No worries about driving, plus it's cheaper / faster than a cab.
    The world would be a better place if people drank better coffee.

    My last time at HostingCon, I did the cPanel party, and I can't lie, it was absolutely awesome.

    I'm doing the PNAP bar crawl this time because I'm up for spreading the love around, we have a few servers in their DC, I know the guys pretty well (I go as far back as 2006 with at least one, if we're including CWIE) and apparently, the crawl is pretty epic too.

    I'm looking forward to hanging out with the PNAP crew and everyone else who's coming too!
