A few updates on the Shanghaiist Happy Hour at Sasha's this Thursday:
• First, chicken nuggets will be served. RMB 15 a portion. It just wouldn't be a Usain Bolt party without nuggets.
• Second, the Just Beer beers on offer will be: James Boag's Premium Lager, Crown Lager and Pure Blonde.
• Crown Lager will be the beer that comes with the 50 kuai entry fee. And we are told paid attendees will also get a free baseball cap. Yay!
• In addition to the drinks listed below, Sasha's will be serving a drink called "Jamaica Me Crazy!," Usain Bolt's favorite drink in the whole world.1
• We have a reggae soundtrack of 94 songs ready to roll ... and less than half of them are by Bob Marley. (Frankly, we were expecting more Marley, but BitTorrent was good to us.)
