We have had a lot of new hashers during this pandemic lockdown. And they have no Hash shirts. Yes, they can order hash shit on line. But I'm going to try and open up the Bizzare Bazzar again and bring around some old used shirts and maybe even an occasional new shirt. Price. What you think it is worth. The money will go to beer. Might not have all sizes, but just a few shirts now and then. Probably mostly day hashes. To hard in the dark. So if you want some hash attire bring along some cash. 90

The Tale of the Trail
Thu Jul 22, 2021, The Thirstday Hash. Just Dillion hared out of Hawthorn Scholastic Academy with a last minute Co-Hare, Stiffy 4 Stiffies for eventually 17 hounds. He was a virgin hare, so we can blame all of the mistakes on trail on Stiffy 4 Stiffies. The trail started out to the north of the school yard and then under the El track led by that short cutting bastard, Horn-E. And on to the north and west. By then the pack was passing me and we finally came to a Check at Addison that really screwed the FRBs. Yeah, me too. And I finally left there with Back Door Bizzel just as a trio or Waukesha visitors finally arrived, walking. We ran on to a Check at Clark ad just north of Wrigley Field. Back Door Bizzle headed north where he saw marks on his way to the hash. I went east and then circled Wrigley Field, counter clockwise looking for trail. At 4 o'clock I finally found a mark and ran through the Red Line station and another Split. I guessed wrong, but there was a mark that way that looked like the hares arrows. Returning on the south side of the street, the pack was just arriving. I led down the alley and was soon passed. We worked our way over to Halsted and Just Christian, (one of the two) and SnatchSquatch and myself worked the trail to the south and finally trail headed west and after a Triple Split I was now running alone. At Clark there was a Check and Beer Near. I headed west and was on and suddenly not On and out of no where. Furry Spice buzzed by me. We weren't on actual trail, but somehow we both made it into the Beer stop and finish. After a short circle we got into naming the hare, Just Dillon. No, we didn't name him Just Dillon. We named him Hump Back Fail. .

Fri Jul 23, 2021, The Chicago Full Moon Hash. SnatchSquatch hared out of Northman on the Riverwalk for an A to B hash to the other side of the river for twelve hounds. We headed to the south and into that little park between hi rises that used to be a 9 hole inner city golf course. Really. We came out at Randrolph upper level and headed further south into the park for a loop to the east and down to Lower Randolph. I think there was a Split here. But SnatchSquatch, sweeping, yelled go west old man and I ran under the upper deck. Then suddenly, Friday, Bloody Friday. I approached the back of a parked bus and just as I entered the shadows, my right big toe found a bolt. Not a lightening bolt. A rusty old bolt sticking out of the concrete sidewalk, probably what was left from some old traffic sign. Like no bus parking here. I did the six foot four point landing izzy dizzy in the dirty dusty concrete and came up with a 10, 9, and a 9. Not enough for even a bronze medal, but a burple heart. Seven bleeding spots and a bruised toe, both hands and knees and right arm. And we just began the hash. But we had to hash on and one injured old man doesn't stop the hash. Hell, it wasn't even a dog bite. We came out to upper level Randolph and headed west to a Check at Michigan. Now, normally we'd go south into Millennium park, but this was SnatchSquatch and we returned to find the Check marked to the north and across the street. So we are on and heading west toward Wabash and then north across the river and into a maze of paths on multiple levels around Trump Tower and the Wrigley Building. By the time I emerged from all of that no one was in sight. There was a turn arrow going north on Michigan. Well. eventually the trail went across Michigan, but I never saw the mark. Three times I past where the trail went across Michigan. Damn tourists standing on arrows. But I finally get on and head east. upper level and at Columbus I head south to just before the river. Stairs there and it was down and On In. Turns out that Putt Putt In The Butt lived right above the B spot and offered to let me go to his gym and wash off some of the grit and dirt and clean up all of the blood. We then held a circle and after circle Putt Putt In The Butt invited everyone to a 6th floor roof deck to hang out. All was good. We did have two visitors from the Carolinas, Poop There It Is and Nipples To Infinity. Saving Myself For Two Black Guys was back in town and brought his sister, Just Amanda. She's only run once or twice but lives here and wants to come back. So welcome her with a good hash welcome when she returns.

Sun Jul 25, 2021, The Second City Hash had False Advertising and Crotch Fire haring a canoing/kayaking hash from Busse Woods. A beautiful day, but I haven't heard anything about the hash. x
Mon Jul 26, 2021, The Chicago Hash. The hares were supposed to be Feather and Maybe Mollie. It had been listed for some time as Cleo's or a nearby park. Finally I saw on the TH3 Calendar that it was at Cleo's at 1935 W. Damen. That was on Sunday. I would imagine a day later that I could count on that. Hell, Maybe Mollie signed up over a month ago. So I arrived at Cleo's as 7:30 and the bar was empty and no hash marks anywhere. I looked around a little and then finally found out on my Cell Phone that the location had been changed, without announcing to everyone, especially everyone who might attend, that the location was now at Eckert Park. I caught a bus and headed there. Naturally, no one was there and I circled the entire park, finally finding where the circle started. By now it is about 8:00 and I had two choices, Follow the trail carrying a heavy bag full of T-shirts or hang around for who knows how long, hoping that it is an A to A. I went home. Wasted 3 hours. Thanks all. Things can go wrong and changes might be necessary. But first, the hares should get out what they hope is a permanent starting location in a timely manner. Like well over a week in advance unless you are a last minute hare. And then, live up to it. If changes are necessary, will an A to B work so the start can stay the same and nobody gets screwed. Or Maybe a nearby place. Not everyone has a car for a quick change. And how about marking at the original place so people can hopefully get to the changed location. I don't know the reason for this change. I'm sure there was a reason, but there is seldom an excuse. This has been going on since I started hashing, mostly with Chicago H3. The first time it happened was October 1985. Some people in the inner clique decided to have one more Monday Hash with the nice weather before switching to Sunday for the winter. Unfortunately, they only got around to telling their good friends, the inner clique, probably late Sat. night. I showed up on Sunday and rode around on my motorcycle for a long time looking for some marks. Ruined my day. So, I've been burned before and it is never right. I have seen others burned before. It sucks. Get it right as soon as possible and do your best to stick with it. And if you can't, do your best to inform everyone possible of the changes. It is your responsibility to do what you can to not hurt your friends, and possibly visitors and virgins.

The Tale of the Trail
Thu Jul 22, 2021, The Thirstday Hash. Mommys Coming and Castration Sensation set trail from Horner Park. Well, at least they say they did. But Mommys Coming set us off and manned the beer stop and Castration Sensation was off setting trail. We went straight north to a little park and then a Check. I went down an alley and when I returned, they were gone. But I plugged on and suddenly saw the pack coming my way. A Back Check gone wrong. It was marked Back Check 2 and turned out to be a Back Check 3. Well. I tried that along with Back Door Bizzle on the other side of the street. At the alley we turned back. Damn, another 30 feet and I would have been On. So we worked the area and much time and about 7 miles later we returned to that Back Check and retried the Back Check 3 idea. By the time I got there, SnatchSquatch Its Too Soft, Just Emanuel were off on the trail, finally. Back Door Bizzle came back to check on me. So the two of us followed through Checks and Splits that weren't swept. That Check on Lawrence was another slow down for us. But we ran On. We finally came to an alley along the El Tracks. As we came out there was a Check and Flamming Flaggot who came late and got directions to there. So I now ended up walking along with him and following the pack. We ended up along Lawrence, crossed Western and then south along Lincoln, through a park and west on Montrose. We missed the Beer Stop in an alley and walked on in with the pack. Except SnatchSquatch and Back Door Bizzle who kept running on more trail I knew nothing about. Along the river on narrow wooded path and down to Irving Park. Then over the river and back to the start, on the hill where the pack was waiting. And the hares drank plenty. Then the newbie, Just Emanuel showed them how to really do a proper Down Down. Twice. Well done. Then the first few rain drops came and I headed out. Unfortunately not soon enough. Got wet and it took a looong time waiting for two bus transfers in the rain. Damn.

Sat Jul 17, 2021, The Bushman Hash, Horn-E laid trail from Forest Glen Forest Preserve on a beautiful day, sun shine but not to hot. And only three hounds showed up. And a great new trail that they missed at least a third of. Shit happens. They took off to the Northwest along the bike path and soon headed into brush and towards the start of the bike bridge over the tracks. There I had a Split. SW over the bridge or NW down a hill and then SW over the tracks at track level. They missed this. Now, the Split only pointed two ways, but they tried a third way and found the ON Back trail. Damn narrow woods. But they shouldn't have even looked here. So they ran SE along the river and to the Beer Stop and no beer and only a half mile or so. So, realizing their mistake they returned to that Split and found trail this time. Good. So they are on and a Check at the other end of the Bike Bridge. After finding this into the woods they came out to prairie and a field full of prairie flowers two to four or five feet high and TP going right through the middle. Don't crush the flowers. They did some of this before realizing that there was a path around it and being lazy bastards they headed to the path. Trail finally came out to Lechowicz Woods picnic area and an arrow pointing across the grassy picnic area. Apparently they missed the marks in the grass but eventually it came to the river and a Split. And they went right and it was wrong. Gotcha. They finally returned and from there it was a nice path along the rivers edge and up to the tracks again. As they climbed up to the tracks they saw a train coming and were more concerned looking out for the train then the marks and missed a huge arrow pointing NW across the trestle. Instead Zone 2 crossed the tracks and spotted an arrow at rivers edge from the return path. Damn, the screwed up the narrow again. So they ran on in along the river's edge and that On In part for the third time. There they found the hare at rivers edge with two six packs, Bloody Orange and Billy Goat. And except for the skeeters that kept ignoring the buckets of bug spray we all wore, all was good. So we abandoned that spot and headed to the picnic area and a park bench in the sun and finished the beer. Beautiful Day. One other thing. We all spotte a pair of Blue Herons flying along the river, And did they squak when they wanted to.

Mon Jul 19, 2021, The Chicago Hash. Sleeping Booty laid trail from Lincoln Park near Wisconsin. Yeah, it goes a long way. Trail had about 18 hounds and took off to the east into the park through the fumes of the Farm in the Zoo. That was almost as bad as some alleys we go through. We headed south to the tunnel under La Salle Drive and a Check. Here we headed west into Old Town and I was soon all by myself. I thought I was DFL. But I was suddenly passed by Construction Junction etc. and then Cockholm Syndrone just as I was approaching a much needed Porta Potty. So I had to wait. Then along came Lower Wackoff and he had to wait. I finally took off and followed trail. Finally Cockholm Syndrome passed me and I just ran on and on and finally came to a beer stop. And some how that sneaky bastard Lower Wackoff was already there. Damn, DFL. We soon took off and I was soon near the back as we headed west. Then we saw hashers coming back from a Back Check and it soon led to a Check. I went north and the pack went west. Damn. So Now I am running behind and following behind Back Door Bizzle and then he disappears. Damn, I'm alone again. But I keep following trail to a Check on Clybourn. I see the last of the pack, Happy Ass Grabber running across the street coming back from a False Trail. By the time I crossed the intersection he was long gone. Lights and damn lights. trail went into a area with some mixed up angled streets and I see Eat My Pussy ahead. And then gone and damn, I'm alone again. Finally I hit some EL tracks and trail underneath. At Dickens is an E & W Split. But someone marked a true trail mark across the street and east. A block later I realized that it didn't go this way. Damn. A bad mark is worse then no mark at all. The trail went straight east on Dickens and at the first corner it went north on Bissel and there was no mark on that north corner. Thanks a lot. So I run on and into De Paul area. Here I missed a mark into the campus and a block later I realized I was off trail. But I was so damn far behind I figured trail was just north to Fullerton and circling back. Wrong, They Checked at Halsted and Fullerton and then went much further north. Meanwhile I headed straight east looking for some kind of return mark. Nothing. At Clark I headed south and came into the finish, FRB. WTF. Where was everybody? It was another 10 minutes before they came on in. Back Door Bizzle led us in circle and all was good.

The Tale of the TrailThu Jul 15, 2021, The Thirstday Hash. SnatchSquatch laid his anal Running of the Bulls hash from Union Park for seven hounds. There were three Bulls and three hounds and one dumb late cumer, Horn-E. The idea is that the Spaniards get a head start and the bulls try to catch/gore them. But this time the Spaniards sabotaged the trail and the Bulls were really lost on Ashland. I just missed the Bulls taking off, but I caught them on Ashland when I saw Stiffy 4 Stiffies and Mommys Coming, running all over the area. I tried to join then but with a heavy back pack, that wouldn't last. And just as suddenly they were gone. But Stiffy 4 Stiffies mentioned something about the trail maybe going by Berts Special Friend and Meat Inside Her's codo. Sounds like an unscheduled/scheduled beer stop. So I headed south to Ogden and then south on Ogden towards their condo. Then I found a Check. First, which way did it come from. Then was it an On Out Check or an On Back Check. It came from the north so the assumption was it was heading south west to the BS. Southwest, not. West, not. South, maybe, big freaking loop and Not. So I tried NE on the other side of Ogden and there it was. So It is an On Back Check. I worked it and it wasn't hard and I came to another park. As I am working the Triple Split, the wrong way, I ran around the park and finally picked up on marks and was off. But as I worked that Triple Split, I heard an R U. I yelled back "NO". The pack was just catching up and ran into the park for a beer stop. Damn, nothing was working right. So I am heading north and a Check. I guessed wrong, but worked my way to Randolph and back to the start. No B anywhere. Just the starting marks. Damn. So I ranged back to that last Check and started working it. East, Not. And as I return to that point I run into a bunch of drunk hounds and we all waked back to where I just came from. And so the pack gathered and we held circle and all was good. Also there were Dick Hermonica, Happy Ass Grabber, False Advertising and Sleeping Booty also on trail. Swing Low

Fri Jul 9, 2021 The First Crack of the Moon Hash. Meat Inside Her and Berts Special Friend hared out of Harrison Park. We had eight hounds and took off to the south. I was having trouble with a bad ankle sprain since Tuesday's 4X2H4 Hash and it hurt as I arrived. So I was starting slow and suddenly the ankle felt fine. At the first Check I was last in and it took a bit but we were soon off to the west and some of the pack were already out of sight, like Lifa and Mommys Little Dumpling. So the rest of us struggled along. Somehow we lost Lower Wackoff but we got to Western and across and south in an alley and a T and E Split. I caught up to Son Of Spam here and we came out of this little dirt path and headed west under tracks and through Tony's parking lot. As we then headed south, the pack was coming towards us. Missed a hidden arrow. So we are finally back on and heading east. We are a small pack of five now. We cross Western and into an alley and finally between a fence and into ancient ruins. Trail went on at the remnants of building foundations as Stuffin Muffin led here. I followed Magnetic Muff, risking falling in the tight vegetation and squeezing through a fence. Its Too Soft chickened out and went back and looped around. As we come out we head east and there were Son Of Spam and Its Too Soft heading north. At the next block was a Check. Magnetic Muff waited on the corner and the four guys split up aAnd yet again, nd headed north and east on both sides of the street. I don't know what happened with them after that. I found an arrow into an alley and never found another after a long block. But there was no way I was returning. That alley smelled like it was serving nothing but fish markets and Chinese restaurants and their garbage, a week after the start of a garbage truck drivers strike. So I went south a half a block and there was a mark. I'm ON but no one in sight to call out to. So I run on and finally come to a BN Check. Back on trail soon I'm heading north and just east of Damen and I come to a Triple Split. South was wrong so I loop to the east and again wrong. I finally return to the Split and head west to Damen and I'm soon On and heading into the finish. And for me, I was running pretty damn good. About as fast as Lifa and Mommy's Little Dumpling running backwards. Really felt great. We broke out chairs and formed a circle. But we were one chair short. And so, in circle, you stood in the center of the circle and gave a down down. That person got up and you quickly grabbed their chair. Musical chairs. Except Its Too Soft who wouldn't release his chair. Then we find out that it isn't even his chair. Worth another down down. But all was good. Swing Low

Sat Jul 10, 2021, The Big Dog Hash, Summer idiot-a-rod. Stiffy 4 Stiffies set this Chicago traditional looooooooong Hash for nine hounds. I got there just as they were leaving and after a Porta Potty stop they were gone and I'm thinking 10 miles playing catch up. Shit. And now my ankle is acting up again and I can't risk running fast to catch up. So, I plod along following trail through Lincoln Park heading north. Finally a Check and it is marked west and under Lake Shore Drive. And another Check at the edge of the park. But a sucker play as the trail headed back into the park and north and finally into the dreaded city alleys and streets. Now, as far as I know, somewhere along here, Lower Wackoff see a Porta Potty and the little green flag is up. He boldly rushes up and yanks open the door just in time to see to see a little girl, or was it an old lady, doing the last wipe. Whoops. He slammed the door and ran off to the nearest alley and stood like a man between dumpsters. Hey, it's his story. But meanwhile I follow trail and down an alley to the north and I think I see Lower Wackoff way ahead. Last I saw of him. He went west and there was an unmarked Check on Argyle. So he heads west and then I arrive and suddenly their is Meat Inside Her, Its Too Soft and Putt Putt In The Butt. And they just found trail to the south. And they run off and I'm behind again, but on trail. Yes, eventually Lower Wackoff got back here and this time it was marked. Then there is another Check and again, I just catch up as they run off to the south in an alley. This time Berts Special Friend was with them. But I ran on and the trail heads west and right by Gay Dancers apartment and even though he was running with us, he short cut the pack to his house for an unscheduled beer stop. I ran right on by and a few blocks later I look back and here comes the pack. We run west on Lawrence and then south through some alleys and eventually to a Check at Wilson and Clark. When I get there, the pack is already gone. But I find trail through Staples parking lot and suddenly there were Lifa and Gay Dancer ahead of me. Well, they were soon out of sight and I'm chugging along alone again and come to a Split at Western, a block north of Montrose. And it is marked False to the west, and the pack is to the south and suddenly returning. WTF. A little screw up here. F means go back to Check or Split. In this case you had to go back through that Split to the previous one and eventually Lifa found that heading north. Meanwhile I'm rechecking straight south and after two blocks, nothing. So I range west and up to Montrose and over to Ravenswood. Nothing. Actually the pack was north of me and going further west then were I stopped. Like I'm running an inner circle and they are runing a wider circle. So I head south looking for marks that might come my way. No way. I get to Irving Park and decide to call it. Remember, I'm running on a bad ankle. And I'm still miles from the finish on an A to B and I don't know where B is. So I start walking east on Irving Park and on the south side of the street so I would be better able to see makes coming north. Meanwhile the pack is running around Wrigley Field with rain and thousands of people walking over the marks. Yes, they got split up into about four groups and I made five. I get to Lake Shore Drive and walk under the bridge and there is a bright beautiful arrow. So, I'm on agan and just as suddenly Gay Dancer comes up behind me, Well, I wasn't running and we was so I mostly followed him north to the pedestrian tunnel and through some city streets and two more Checks and I manage to again run into Gay Dancer at parks edge and Montrose. A few block later we head towards Lake Shore Drive behind a field House and there is the finish. A mob of non runners and Stiffy 4 Stiffies cooking burgers, I needed food. Damn good burgers. Eventually we all came on in. Castration Sensation was DFL but he ran 15 miles. Life also got 15. My GPS got screwed up but I probably got 7 or 8 miles. Circle was good and a light rain started and all was good. As I left and got into a bus, Stiffy 4 Stiffies ran up and waved me off after I already paid. He offered me a ride home. Now things are really good. Swing Low my friends.

Mon Jul 12, 2021, The Chicago Hash. Sharti B laid a trail out of Palmer Square Park, west end, and he had 19 hounds for this A to B trail. About 4.5 miles for the Turkey Trail. And yes, I ran the Turkey Trail, but I don't know how or where or when I got on it. Any hoo. trail started through the park and just south to Dickens street and west to California. At this point I'm a little ahead of Lower Wackoff and the pack is out of sight. North on California the trail makes it way over to Milwaukee and a Check. As I get there I see Happy Ass Grabber on the other side of Milwaukee being pulled down the street by his dog. I follow and after a short loop to the south we are back at Milwaukee and just before Armitage I find another Check. Unmarked so I head north and Lifa follows me. Hey, where did he come from. Anyhow I inform him about the Check and we split. Ultimately I find the trail and Lifa and Lower Wackoff and I run on to a Check at Western and Lyndale. Lifa goes straight so I head west. Nothing west and I never saw Lifa again until the finish. Straight north on Western and trail crossed Western but never a third arrow. He ranged and picked up on the trail. Now I followed him and Lower Wackoff on that False and we run into USSR. We return and finally find the real trail east from the Check and it runs on to Oakley and we run into USSR's two virgins, J. Emmanuel and J. Monica. Somehow we all manage to work our way over to Western and Logan Blvd. and a Check. At this point we were on the Turkey Trail but here is where we rejoined the Eagle Trail. and the two rejoin and there are hounds everywhere. From here the trail went to a Check on Logan Blvd by a church. This led to Altgeld through an alley and then west, past a Check, and on in to the finish on the Boulevard parkway just west of Richmond. Circle was to damn loud. I guess that is what happens when I have two working hearing aids. It was like standing in the middle of a rock concert. But all was good and we hung around after circle for a bit. I finally left when I felt some rain and headed on out. Swing Low, hashers.
