PHOTOS: Leprecon Hoboken Bar Crawl Subdued For 2022

HOBOKEN, NJ — Hoboken's bars and restaurants seemed to be doing brisk business Saturday night, but the long lines and rowdiness that used to accompany the city's most infamous bar crawl, Leprecon, appeared to have declined for 2022.

As the crawl had been going on since 10 a.m., by nightfall pizza shops and Dunkin' Donuts were making out as well as some bars — and there appeared to be some makin' out at Dunkin'.

A Twitter user asked for a list of bars that were not participating. "It’s pretty quiet this weekend so far," noted a commenter.

Due to well-publicized fines and other enforcement measures, arrests from the event have declined over the years:

• There were six arrests during Hoboken Leprecon 2020.
• Leprecon 2021 was canceled.
• There were four arrests this past December during Hoboken Santacon.

This past November, the city of Hoboken announced that only vaccinated patrons could participate in Hoboken Santacon.

Last month, the city lifted indoor mask mandates in most situations. READ MORE: Hoboken To Repeal Mask Mandate, With Exception
