Preparing for TBOX – What to Wear, How to Have the Most Fun & Expert Crawling Tips!
- Dress in a Festive Holiday / Christmas / or other outrageous themed costume, whatever you like! Everyone dresses up. Santa costumes, Elves, Grinches, Reindeer, Ugly Sweaters, Pajamas, Hoodies, Check out some ideas from past years here and here
- Bring a Coat that isn’t your best one you won’t mind messing up, and don’t wear fancy shoes you may mess up! There may be snow, sleet, and cereal underfoot as you crawl, and it can ruin nice shoes, so wear something comfortable (for walking) and easy to clean off.
- Pace Yourself! It’s a marathon, not a sprint! Please drink responsibly – you’ll definitely want to remember what a great time you had!
- Take Lots of Pictures (and please tag @TBOXBarCrawls!)
- Collect TBOX Stickers, take pictures in the TBOX Frames, and get your WORLD FAMOUS CEREAL SHOTS at Cubby Bear to lose your TBOX Virginity! For a summary of all the unique quirky only-at-TBOX stuff – See Here!
- If you see anyone wearing a License Plate on a Chain around their neck, they are TBOX Royalty! Ask for your picture with them!
- Enjoy drink specials from our Sponsors, Bud Light, Nutrl Seltzer, and Kona Beer – the prices will be posted at each bar and mailed out beforehand.
- This is the 29th TBOX — it was founded in 1996 by Mister Festa, who will be at TBOX this year as always – try to meet him and get his sticker! If you’re curious to see a slideshow on the whole history of TBOX – View Here!
- We’ve donated over $350,000 to Charity and will be donating once again this year – details here!
