Snuggie-mania

Last night I went out with some of my law school friends and saw probably the strangest thing that I have ever seen at a bar. Is that a group of monks? Some kind of DC secret society meeting? A cult? Nope, it was a group of people on a snuggie bar crawl. (Sorry, I really wish I had taken pictures).

It is amazing how these blankets with arms have become a cult phenomenon. One minute it is on an informercial, the next it is on the Today show. Even conservatives and libertarians are started a Snuggie Cult.

As much as I love curling up on the couch with a blanket to read, I think I will have to pass on the Snuggie. Nor do I think they make for good bar-hopping attire: they must be really hot and I kept stepping on them.
