Welcome to the Big Ten; a prestigious club in which tradition rules, football teams take pride in their rugged style, bland uniforms and, above all, die-hard fans. Yes, the serious business of football season calls for a kick-off party of equal magnitude. This year the tradition continues with the 6th annual BIG TEN PUB CRAWL, Saturday, August 20th from 3 – 10pm+. Wear your team colors and come out to spend the day with thousands of fellow Big Ten alums. Enjoy food and drink specials, games, giveaways, and venues with live music! All net proceeds benefit the Homeless Pets Foundation, a local Atlanta‐based charity organization.
In addition to school bars and the typical fun, we have a few tricks up our sleeves for this year - stay tuned! Online sales will be available until noon the day of the event, and $25 tickets are available at East Andrews until 6pm that day. If you purchase your tickets online you have until 8pm to claim your wristband at East Andrews, wristbands will not be given out after that time.
There are no refunds/returns for this event, and you must be 21 or older. Have fun and please drink responsibly. |

The MissionHomeless Pets Foundation saves dogs and cats who have run out of time at public shelters and brings people and animals together to enrich each others lives. Homeless Pets Foundation strives to create a world where every loving dog and cat has a home, where every lonely person has a companion animal, and where children learn to care. The Homeless Pets Foundation was created in 1998 by Dr. Michael Good, an Atlanta-based veterinarian, to address the needs of companion animals. Their vision for Homeless Pets Foundation is an organization that can not only aid abandoned and homeless animals, but also promote the concept that people's lives can be enhanced by strengthening the bonds between humans and animals. Homeless Pets Foundation will continue to respond to the immediate needs of animals who have been neglected, abused or deprived of love to ensure they find high quality homes. At the same time, Homeless Pets Foundation will embody the vision of a better future-one where animals are respected for the unique role they can and do play in making the world a better place for people to live and where there is a stable and loving home for every pet to complete its natural lifespan. The Homeless Pets Foundation is currently split into three different entities. The first one, just known as the Homeless Pets Adoptions, concentrates on adopting animals through Town and Country Veterinary Clinic and managing the many dogs and cats in our program. The second part, Homeless Pet Clubs, partners with schools and workplaces and uses their social networking abilities to help adopt out animals. Finally, because shelter animals are higher in demand in the Northeast, Homeless Pets Transport, also known as the Underhound Railroad, helps move animals from the South to the North, ensuring the dogs or cats find a loving home. Since late in 1998 we have placed nearly 10,000 animals in loving homes. Strategies
