Can't believe I'm saying this-- but it was fairly awesome. And I'm not one for historical crap. But the meeting house is beautiful and it was a nice night to walk down to Rowe's wharf. I highly recommend to folks to get there next year.

Would this unwavering commitment to historical accuracy require us to rough up the Governor, burn down his mansion, and eventually force him to flee to England?

I asked the folks over at the Boston Beer Company (aka Sam Adams) if they were involved in this event (hoping that there would actually be boozing as part of it). I told them that Sam Adams organized the tea party and they should follow suit 232 years later. Unfortunately, they weren't game...but their tour is only $2 and you'll get at 23.2 oz of beer...I guess that's something.
