The Hunt for the Red October Lobster

The Hunt for the Red October Lobster is a fun bar hop, a Claw Crawl, if you will, to celebrate the fall. The hunt takes place every year on a Saturday around Halloween. Teams of one-to-whatever compete in different contests for really cool lobster stuff (sorry, no live ones!). Celebrate Lobsters (love 'em, don't eat 'em!), October and the color red as you travel around Philly on foot. Come on, join the fun!

Hunt for the Red October Lobster is Saturday, December 2nd!  The abbreviated hunt take place 5-7pm at Quig's (3rd floor of Plays and Players (1714 Delancey Street).  Hang out and play some aquatic-themed games!
