Starting around the 8th or 9th TBOX, people started really stepping up their costume game… Crazy Christmas Attire… Pajamas… Onesies… Ugly Sweaters… Sexy Santa Outfits… and over the years, fantastic group and theme costumes. Pretty much ANYTHING GOES!!! And anytime you see any type of Pajama Crawl, Onesie Crawl, Santa Crawl, Ugly Sweater Party… they’re Copying TBOX. So why not come to the Original?
We encourage you to dress in Colorful, Fun Holiday Attire and/OR – for 2021 – The Theme is BACK TO THE 90s!!! You’ll see some of the most incredibly dressed people when you come to the one and only, the original, the legendary, Twelve Bars of Xmas Pub Crawl in Wrigleyville, Chicago!
What’s With the CEREAL and CEREAL SHOTS?!
TBOX Founder Christopher Festa has always loved Cereal… he pretty much lived on it in college, and when he started throwing parties, well… Froot Loops, Cap’n Crunch, Lucky Charms – those were an integral part of the Pub Crawl experience from the beginning! Sugary, Crunchy Cereal is a great energy boost and over the years, “Cereal Shots” developed into a form of edible confetti. We lean you back and pour a whole scoop of sweet cereal in you, on you, and everywhere! Watch our little video (turn on the sound too!) – and if you want to know more, Read the Whole Fascinating Backstory HERE! It involves Green Beer, a Bucket, High School Hijinks, and the kind of stuff you’d read in a “Florida Man…” article.
One of the FUNNEST things about TBOX are the TONS of FUNNY STICKERS. We’ve made over 1.7 MILLION! They say things like “TBOX VIRGIN” for first-timers, “I AM SINGLE”, “I AM NOT IN A COMMITTED MONOGAMOUS RELATIONSHIP”, “LET’S MAKE OUT RIGHT NOW”, “I LIKE HAPPY ENDINGS”, and tons of other silly, fun, flirty things. And this year, we have a totally fun, LIT collection of Christmas and Meme Themed Stickers! Get them when you check in or during the day from our Street Team or VIPs!
So collect them Throughout the day and at Pre-Check In.
