Red-suited SantaCon pub crawl revelers fan out across NYC
NEW YORK — New York City’s annual SantaCon event is on despite efforts by a community group to deter the holiday pub crawl by red-suited revelers.
Fliers that claimed the festival was canceled had gone up in some neighborhoods in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
The group behind the fliers is called New York City Residents. It wants the rowdy event to shut down permanently.
New York Police have extra police on hand to ensure everyone has a good and safe time as participants hit dozens of bars on Saturday.
