    OK, so here's the deal- King Street used to have 12 pubs lining the street. There was a…read moretraditional game among the University students, where they go to each pub drinking 1 pint per pub as fast as they can until they reached the final pub. The winner completes the task without relieving themselves in ANY way. That would be 12 pints without a bathroom break! And no puking!!! Should someone be able to reach the end, they would be given a green tie to commemorate their accomplishment, because it was said that green would be the color of your face by the time you got to the end if you actually did it. As legend has it, some would be arriving at the last few pubs crawling on their hands and knees, which is where the term "Pub Crawl" comes from. Currently, the race is much easier because there are only 5 pubs. The King Street Run Pub keeps the legend alive. Not only is this a great pub, It's namesake is the event and it also has a sign out front that portrays a caricature of the race. Too funny! Stopped in here for a couple of pints on the way home last night. Tried a cider for the firs time! much lighter than a ale or other kind of beer. Very refreshing on a summer night. There are also dart boards, pool tables, video games and TVs all around. Big signs advertising the Arsenal/Manchester City game on Sunday. Go check it out!

    Definitely a place for the locals. Everyone in this pub undoubtedly knows each other and many are…read morerecognisable by the graffiti scrawled on the walls, doors and the occasional ceiling throughout. The drink prices are pretty standard but the limited smoking area outside makes it difficult to move when you go in search of nicotine. The backward doors, wonky floors and various items of furniture, which can more commonly be found attached to the ceiling instead of on the floor make for an initial source of amusement, after your 7th or 8th drink you might find yourself wanting somewhere to sit over something to look at. Overall an interesting place to drink and definitely one of Cambridge's more unconventional watering holes.
