Nov 18: Maovember Corn-Toss
What the hell's a corn-toss, you say? Why, you've been missing out, friend. As the event summary details: "Think you have what it takes to throw a bag of corn 30 feet? Onto a board? With a hole in it? Then get a teammate and sign up for this year’s 12-team tournament." Email George Smith at gwsmithiii@gmail.com. 1.30pm onward. RMB 100 (per team of two). The Irish Volunteer
Nov 19: The First Maovember Dog Pub Crawl
What do Beer Mania, The Local, XL Bar and Restaurant, Paddy O’Shea’s, and Jing-A Brewing all have in common? Well, aside from being part of a midsection-testing Maovember pub crawl, all these joints are also pup friendly, meaning Man's Best Friend can tag along for fun. Let's just say you won't complain about taking the dog for a walk this time. 2pm onward. RMB 100 for a voucher for complimentary drinks at each venue. Various venues
