Three Hundred Thursdays

Drinking Liberally is big on our anniversaries. Maybe it comes hand-in-hand with the culture of drinking -- you always want to toast to something.

Now, how about a Weekiversary? May seem silly, but the original chapter of Drinking Liberally measures its life in weeks, not in years...because every week for nearly 6 years we have been meeting at the same time and the same bar.

For three hundred Thursdays in a row.

From the start, we very consciously weren't organizing only around special events -- we were creating a weekly routine. You wouldn't have to be on our email list...you knew we'd be there. You could leave town for months -- or years -- and still find us. You never had to feel bad about missing one, because next week there'd be another.

We credit much of our growth to that regularity. We're like their laundromat, their grocery store, their coffee vendor...we're part of their everyday lives.

Or, at least their every-week lives.

So tonight marks the Tricent-weekial of the original chapter of Drinking Liberally -- our 300th week gathering, since May 29th, 2003, sharing an evening with old friends and new.

Come on out to Rudy's and make us part of your weekly ritual. In honor the occasion, there will be free Rudy's calendars and drink tickets. After all, we all something in hand for the toasts.
