Default Bunny Hop

What in the world is that? I'm new to Fairmount so I've just seen the signs up at Rembrandts. I assume that it's related to Easter? Will there be girls there?

When did the signs say the Hop was this year? We were just talking about how we haven't seen anything and I thought maybe with Easter so early this year it was off track with St. Pattys day etc.
Basically you pay $10 (well that's what it was last year I think, maybe $12) and you get a set of bunny ears (or a wrist band if you don't want to be festive) and a number of the bars in Fairmount then have specials for anyone wearing the ears/wristband. The money goes to charity (Children's Hospital I believe).

It's a really good time, lots of singles go to it.

I only wish I had more than 4 days notice about it...I'm not in fairmount anymore, so i didn't see any of the posters, and I can't change my schedule to go!

We're gonna give it a shot. How can you not enjoy the combination of beer, bunny ears and charity (I can't think of a "b" word for charity to make the whole thing nice & alliterative).
