Fuzzy's Mustache Ride - Bus Trip To Menomonie W/ EverGreen Grass Band (7:00 PM)
Fuzzy's Mustache Ride - Bus trip to Menomonie w/ EverGreen Grass Band
Saturday, October 9 at 7:00pm
Location: Eau Claire to Menomonie, and back again
This just in - We were planning on selling tickets, and having the drunk bus depart from the Mousetrap. Instead tickets will be on sale at Tangled Up In Hue, the bus will also be leaving from there (at 8:30). Oct. 9th. Get your seat now
EverGreen Grass Band, in conjunction with Right Way Shuttle Service, and the Waterfront Bar and Grill in Menomonie, have chartered another drunk bus to ferry you all around. Once again the bus will be leaving from Tangled Up In Hue at approximately 9pm, and will return when the show is over. Here's the deal -
It costs 8 dollars to ride the bus, there are 25 seats, and tickets can be purchased at Tangled Up In Hue, or from one of us EverGreen guys. Try to be at Tangled Up In Hue about 15 minutes before departure time. Now for the kicker. Jason Davis, from the Waterfront, has donated a bottle of Jameson, and 2 cases of PBR, these will be on the bus for the ride up there. What a guy!
When the bus arrives at the Waterfront everyone must have a mustache, or they will be appointed one. Be creative, draw one, paint one, wear one, grow one, either way you have to have one to get in, (oh no "finger-staches please.) You can either pay 2 or 8 dollars to get into the show. 2 dollars gets you in, and jello shots at 10pm. 8 dollars gets you in, a commemorative 20 oz. beer glass (filled for free the first time, and 3 bucks your choice of beer after that), a brat or veggie burrito, jello shots, and a ticket for a sweet raffle drawing. Sound good? Oh yea this whole time EverGreen Grass Band will be playing some rowdy bluegrass for you to get your drink on to.
Wow that was alot of information to spit out. Hope to see all your your smiling mustaches soon.
