Good, clean (comfy cult?) fun

You’ve seen them on late-night TV, and now Snuggies – the blankets with sleeves – are taking to the streets via pub crawls. I am not making this up.

 They’re popping up everywhere from Chicago to San Francisco, and attracting hundreds of creative participants who are fashioning basic fleece blankies (only $14.95!)  into everything from gladiator getups to bedazzled ballerina costumes.

Additional crawls are planned in Vermont and Pennsylvania and  maybe  one near you?

Oh, and don’t miss the original cheesy-good commercial that triggered the trend (along with some pretty entertaining parodies):
