BYT and Bohemian Caverns are throwing a full-on election night carnival: 5 bucks all night, three floors of goodness.
The doors open at 3pm, so come after work as we’re gonna have some fun shit going on early. Like Twister. And a 20 foot bouncy boxing ring on the street. And moonbounce. And a fire breather. And cotton candy. And popcorn. And pie eating contests (not joking). And giant-fucking-jenga. I’m getting out of breath here. Earlier = better when it comes to election carnivals.
Most of the carnival stuff will be happening from 5pm-10pm so come early.
+ the Fatback DJ’s, Adrian Loving, and The Return of Party Bros (Chris Burns and Gavin Holland)
+ Pinatas
+ Kuku, Clarence “Bluesman” Turner, N’Digo Rose, Jessica Chambliss, Will Rast & the Funk Ark
+ Inflatable boxing PLUS moonbounce
+ hijinks
+ Projectors full of real time critical electoral stats and polls and JOHN STEWART ZOMG
+ Sarah Palin effigy (true)
+ Lasers
+ Champagne toast
+ BYT Bikini Squad
+ Hugs (awkwardly long)
+ Awesome restaurant (with abbreviated=cheap menu items)
+ Merriment and celebration
+ Pie Eating Contest
+ Specials: Ciroc and Cuervo Platino, and “Ciroc the Vote” (ha!) Dem vs Rep cocktail thingies
+ Piggy back rides
+ Check out the parade in the streets when Barack is elected
+ Photoshoot with the real John “Maverick” McCain
+ Enjoyable conversation
+ More things I’m forgetting
+ 21+
+ It’s Cale’s Birthday!
3pm election day until they restore order on U street outside (2am+). Bohemian is on the corner of 11th and U St NW, as in directly between the U Street green line metro stops, as in heart of U street, as in you already know where it is.
Seriously, we had a whole discussion tonight on how high the ceiling is and whether or not it will fit all our sweet carnival gear. Take Wednesday off, socialist.
I may stop by but leave long before the results are in so I don’t have to be around when people cheer because one shit sandwich won, or jeer because the other shit sandwich did.
October 27, 2008 at 5:17 pmI read this the other day in one of those just-woke-up hazes and was excited, but promptly forgot because I was in-between worlds.
Then today I was talking to someone about my election day plans and for a moment I thought I had dreamed of this amazing-sounding funtime. But it wasn’t a dream! It’s really happening!

October 29, 2008 at 1:11 pm21+, sorry, out of our control.
October 29, 2008 at 1:25 pmthis looks so dope, bringing all my friends.
October 29, 2008 at 6:02 pmWill we actually be able to hear Jon Stewart? Not all 100% of him but the funny stuff.
October 29, 2008 at 11:20 pmHa! We just had a long phone conversation about this tonight – I’m thinking we’ll kill the music and all collectively watch Daily Show (have the DJ’s sping during the commercials) and then back to partying.
October 29, 2008 at 11:51 pmRad, I’ll be there. If I’m already not drunk…
October 29, 2008 at 11:54 pmI’ll be crying either way…let’s hope it’s for joy.
Everyone keeps telling me about this party individually saying how awesome it’s going to be, so I hope it lives up to the expectations!!

Are there going to be food specials? I’ve heard the food there is normally kind of pricey.
