Image by TfUnQ via FlickrI was just wondering if these guys were going to be organizing an event for this year.  I did a little research and this event has made it to IheartPGH every year (2005, 2006, 2007).  Santarchy is an afternoon bar crawl where everyone dresses like Santa.

The Santas will meet at the fountain by the Cheesecake Factory in Southside works at 2pm on Saturday, December 13, 2008.  Click here for all the details.  The event is free – you pay for your own drinks.  Just wear your Santa costume.

YES, you MUST wear a costume. NO, you can NOT get by with a red shirt and Santa hat. BE CREATIVE, ya lazy bum! You don’t have to look like Santa, but you MUST NOT look like you. Jeans, in particular, will be removed and destroyed without warning.

Not in Pittsburgh? Not a problem – there are Santarchy events in cities all over the world this December visit Santarchy.com for all of the details.  Click here for more pictures from Santarchy Pittsburgh 2007.
