Yup. I’m a teetotaller with a very low threshold indeed for “laddishness” but there is not much better than being in a lovely city somewhere with mates you love just being really fucking silly for a few days.

Would probably be floored by my third pint.

My pal had his stag do in hamburg and all of them got dressed as Kevin Keegan in his Hamburg days, and took a pedal pub to the ground. The driver de-toured them through the St. Pauli area of the city so strangers could hurl insults at them from the pavement. Sounded like a great time and about the perfect banter level imo

We did a stag in Hamburg while the G20 was on and the city was locked down for rioting. We did a “beer bike” thing which we had to do through the suburban outskirts as a result, was fucking brilliantly surreal.

these look like an absolute nightmare every time i’ve seen them.

people who have been on a pedal pub:

  • fucking nightmare
  • neutral
  • no, was fantastic

Genuinely hard work and would’ve been absolutely dire but for the brilliant circumstances surrounding it

On the one hand, beer
But on the other hand, cycling

Had a double rum and coke the other night. Was fucked after it. Don’t know what I’m going to do when I eventually go to a pub. Die probably.

Just pretend your cycling and let everyone else do the work

Alright Mummy Pig (might be a bit niche here).

I voted but didn’t mean to, I haven’t been on one.

Went on one, and it was quite fun - think the bike had an electric motor for when people were feeling tired/lazy, so it was all good.

I haven’t actually been on one, but you see hen dos going around town on them, and they look like dreadful things. There’s plenty of pubs that cater for stag dos and hen dos - and don’t get me wrong, they’re an important part of Brighton’s economy - but if you’re sitting outside a quiet back street pub it disturbs the peace to have a dozen pissed up hens go by, where they’ve had to go that route to avoid block the main roads, because they’re in such a state of inebriation that they move at a snails pace

I was at one of the early Great Escapes, and they had some a lineup of some of the arty post-punk smoke machine type bands in the bar on the pier. One side was the gigs, the other side continued as a karaoke bar. However the two sides shared toilets, and the doors out were identical.

So loads and loads of really pissed people on stag and hen dos standing watching the bands for a bit, really confused until they realised they’d accidentally got into a different room.

raises hand to ask the driver to put the motor on immediately upon embarking the pub

We were in Hamburg for three days on a stag do. St Pauli won promotion (I think) on the last day and we went out that night, basically picking our way through burnt out cars and police barricades.

that sounds fucking amazing.

Oh at first it’s easy, but at some point you’re a bit drunk and thinking “LET’S MAKE IT GO FAST”, and then you do!n’t, obviously

Happened one year at Simple Things in Bristol too, where one of the venues is SWX (which is such a cliché shit provincial club that it almost feels like a provincial shit club-themed club). Got the peculiar mix of people who had come to see Kano playing downstairs and people who had come to see the Chippendales upstairs.
