  7. What if I lose my wristband?

    If you lose your wristband it is no different than losing an entry ticket to a concert or event. If you wish to continue crawling, you must purchase a replacement wristband at one of the registration locations. Therefore we strongly recommend that you guard your wristband in order to ensure entry to each participating bar without paying the cover and eligibility to receive all drink specials.
