I knew that would grab your attention.
Hi.
Ever wanted to severely bruise your coccyx from being catapulted from a mechanical bull? Ever wanted to do it while intoxicated so, at the very least, you wouldn’t have to deal with the pain until the next morning?
Well, then this is your lucky weekend…if you happen to have a ticket.
The Beer, Bourbon & BBQ Festival is coming to Manhattan on Saturday, 1/30 for a “great day of beer sippin’, bourbon tastin’, music listenin’, cigar smokin’, and barbeque eatin’.” However, it looks like both sessions (12:00PM – 4:00PM/VIP Whole Hog and Bacon, 5:00PM – 9:00PM/Afternoon) are sold out.
Bummer.
For those still curious, the festival will feature live bluegrass music, panel discussions, tastings of over 40 bourbons and 60 beers, and of course, that dang ol’ mechanical bull.

*Note: I’m anal about spelling, so I went through the website’s list of beer participants and corrected any errors. I just figured I would let you know because…well, just because.
