Brace yourselves. SantaCon 2018 invades New York bars this Saturday with plans to spread to Hoboken next weekend.
However, one Jersey City establishment plans on keeping drunk Kris Kringles out of its premises.
Zeppelin Hall will refuse service to any inebriated SantaCon participants on both SantaCon weekends. The German biergarten is promising its patrons a “100 percent frat boy-free” series of Saturday nights, which they’ve dubbed SantaNON.
SantaCon is supposed to be an annual pub crawl where participants dress up as Christmas characters and drop off donations at participating bars/venues. In reality, it’s a day filled with drunk, annoying Santas.
Zeppelin isn’t the only establishment bracing itself for SantaCon. The LIRR, Metro North, and NJ Transit have issued a 24-hour ban on all alcohol on its trains. NJ Transit has gone so far as prohibiting all drinks — alcoholic or not — on its trains, buses, and the Light Rail. (Violators will receive a summons and fine).
In other words, you may want to avoid the 33rd/Hoboken PATH train the next two Saturdays.
