Haven't done Pelican bar either. I have a hard time giving up an entire day for a road trip. Others have suggested combining it with YS Falls, Black River or some other activity to make the trip a little more worthwhile. We have done the bar crawl 4 or 5 times now and love it. I contacted Lenbert in January for a mid-February crawl and the day we wanted (Wednesday) was already overbooked. He added a Tuesday crawl which was great because the bus was full but not overly full as is the norm. Overly full is not bad though you have a lot more singing and dancing as it progresses. Hope you like Abba!!
