Get ready for a dose of grade school nostalgia this summer, Chicago. Bucket Listers, the experiential media brand, is resurrecting the beloved school book fair, but with a decidedly adult twist.

The Boozy Book Fair is coming to Chicago this spring. There is actually a scantron sheet to fill out to pick your beverage of choice while you're browsing the selection. Besides the books and booze, they'll also have some of those goofy knick-knacks like back in the day. There will be some nostalgic photo ops, too. For info or to purchase tickets, HERE.
