Underbear (May 30 - Jun 01, 2014)


What's sexier then a beefy man in his underwear? Not much! Which is exactly why we're celebrating all you thick, hunky, guys at our UNDERBEAR party on May 31, 2014! That's right, due to popular demand we're doing our first underwear night in a very long time -- and let's face it, nothing really says summer is around the corner like a thick, JUICY, sizzling hot, piece of MAN-BEEF (give or take on the smokey flavor). See who's going...

Hotel Information

Most of you should be familiar with the Marriott Townplace Suites (22 Holland Ave. Albany, NY). As always, be sure to ask for the "BEAR ALBANY DISCOUNT" when calling to get our special rates (518-860-1500). There's no event registration fees and be sure to take advantage of the hotel's FREE SHUTTLE so you don't have to drive to the bars!

Friday: Meat & Greet (9pm)

UNDERBEAR weekend kicks off on Friday May 30th @ WaterWorks Pub for the BEARAOKE MEAT & GREET (76 Central Ave). Come have a couple drinks and then sing your favorite song for the gang. It's a great time to "meat" new friends and "greet" buddies that you haven't seen in a while. WaterWorks Pub always has a great atmosphere, awesome drink specials, free pizza & wings, and NO COVER for all of our BEAR ALBANY buds. See who's going...

Saturday: FunPlex Fun Park (2pm)

It's May. The weather's great! After hanging out at the hotel pool, come join us as we head to Funplex Funpark in East Greenbush (12 minutes from the hotel) for some mini golf. There are plenty of other attractions like go karts and batting cages for anyone interested. For those who would like to carpool, we'll be leaving from the host hotel lobby at 2pm. See who's going...

Saturday: Underbear (9pm)

Come out Saturday May 31st at 9pm to the UNDERBEAR main event at ROCKS (77 Central Ave). Show us your hottest underwear by leaving your clothes at the coat check station, then head into the bar for awesome drink specials, great dance music, and a late night bite to eat around midnight. Expect to see an array of scantily clad, rough & tumble MEN showing off their best pair of undies! See what they've got, show 'em what you want, and the rest is nobody else's business! There's $7 donation at the door, which benefits the C4 AIDS Ward in Albany Medical Center. And while you're exploring every DARK CORNER of the bar, remember that what happens in Albany, stays in Albany. See who's going...

Sunday: Brunch (12pm)

Head over with the Bear Albany gang to McGeary's Irish Pub (4 Clinton Square) to have a delicious lunch. The staff is extremely bear-friendly, they have a pretty great lunch menu, and they'll even give you 20% off your lunch check by saying you're with Bear Albany. It should also be mentioned that it's the perfect place for those in dire need of a little "hair of the dog" on Sunday morning. See who's going...
