SantaCon is Saturday in Coconut Grove

SantaCon is back this year and it looks as if almost every bar in Coconut Grove is participating!

The event is Saturday, December 14 and starts at 5 pm. The Santas are helping the Sandbar wtih their Toys for Tacos toy drive. Bring a toy and get a free taco.

Anyone can join in, you just need to wear a Santa costume and bar crawl in that. It's free to participate. There are specials at all the bars in the crawl.

The lineup looks like this:
Sandbar Sports Grill - 5-7 pm
The Grove Spot - 7 pm
Duffy's Sports Grill - 8 pm
Fat Tuesday - 9 pm
The Goose - 10 pm
Tavern - 11 pm
Barracuda - midnight
 Mr. Moe's - 1 am

It's a cool event where the Grove is covered in red as you see gobs of Santas making their way around the village.

The Wikipedia definition: SantaCon is an annual mass gathering of people dressed in Santa Claus costumes parading publicly on streets and in bars in cities around the world. The focus is on spontaneity and creativity, while having a good time and spreading cheer and goodwill.

You don't have to be a traditional Santa. They've had Elvis Santa, pimp Santa, 80's rock star Santa..., along with sexy elves, snowmen, naughty Mrs. Claus, so feel free to get creative and come up with something Christmas-y and Santa themed.
