Anthrax 2015

2015 is almost in the books and that can mean only one thing – time to get your butt to Chicago for The Great Chicago Anthrax Scare & Santa Hat Run before your relatives lull to sleep during the holidays with boring stories.

Once again, no street, alley, or public park in the Windy City is safe as we celebrate how a few stray dollops of flour can shut down an entire neighborhood with food, fun, and, most importantly, beer.

Your rego guarantees you the aforementioned food, fun, and beer, as well as a hazmat suit, commemorative tag, and super-exclusive giveaway (you’re expected to provide your own santa hat, you Big Hump bastards). Who knows, we may go crazy and even have a shirt that can be purchased for an additional cost.

IMPORTANT TRAIL INFORMATION

Since it looks like Gispert is going to smile down upon us once again this year with good weather, the Hares have informed me that they will be setting not one, not two, but FOUR different trails for your Anthraxening pleasure. You must choose, but choose wisely –

“Gotta Lose that Muffin Top” BALLBUSTER ~10 miles
“I Believe I Can Fly” EAGLE ~ 7 miles
“At Least I Tried” TURKEY ~ 5 miles
“Give Me Booze Already” WALKERS ~3.5 miles

Each trail cums with at least three different drink stops plus the usual shenanigans that you’ve cum to expect from Anthrax.

| Friday Info | Saturday Info | Sunday Info |

Fifteen years on, and the ladies of Chicago are still at it – its time once again for our annual “Power of the Pussy” celebration as everyone’s favorite group of harrierettes takes the reigns and plan a truly memorable weekend for everyone.

This year’s theme is “Mardi PauXXXp” – join as Chicago H3 does their best New Orleans on Fat Tuesday impression as the ladies turn your favorite hash into something normally reserved for Bourbon Street. Expect lots of beads, and quite possibly a set of boobs or two. Costumes, as always, are not only allowed but encouraged.

Your rego gets your plenty of cold beer before during and after trail, delicious food at the on-in (including a potluck contest), an exclusive giveaway (provided you rego early enough), and shiggy (both traditional and urban variety). If you rego for the entire weekend you’ll get access to Friday night’s “Beer Journey Pre-Lube” as well as Sunday’s “Crawfish Hangover.” Not only that, but you’ll have a collection of the coolest harriettes you’ll ever meet showing you a good time.

The first fifteen people to rego will receive an exclusive price of $35 for the Main Event and $40 for the weekend – after that the price is $45/$50 until August 9th. If you’re lazy you’ll be charged $5 more than that if you wait until the week of to rego and another additional $5 if you show up the day of and try to pay. Power of the Pussy is worth it at any price, but don’t say the ladies didn’t warn you about the price increases. Be smart, rego early.

CH3 #1971

Chicago HHH #1971 – Monday 5/25 – 12 Noon (-ish, it’s a hangover!)
Hare(s): It’s Too Soft, Gayping Panda Hidden Homo & W-Jew 40
Venue: Party Central SkyDeck – 933 W Wolfram Rooftop
Hash Cash: $10, unless you paid for the whole weekend package

Following CH3 #1964 where one of the beer stops represented a “soft opening” for the Party Central SkyDeck, we proudly present Opening Day 2015 as the Capstone event for CH3 Memorial Day Weekend 2015!

First, we launch this grand enterprise of hashing with what is expected to be the most magnificent (maleficent?) trail of the weekend through some of the most utterly horrific urban shiggy ever witnessed by man or beast anywhere in the very-seldom-hashed nether regions that are the Green Zone, courtesy of the most unlikely jambalaya of hares seen in the CH3 “Modern Era”. Bolt cutters, furnishing dental records to the Cook Couny Coroner’s Office beforehand and a change of socks and shoes are highly recommended.

Then, we’ll finish off this most glorious weekend with a Foofdeck party of the highest order, starting with a veritable Niagra Falls of PBR (and other similar high-quality craft brews)-fueled Beerstravaga and make a run at challenging last year’s Foofdeck Memorial Day Hangover record of blasting through thirteen (!!!) 30-packs of beer. Also concurrent with the foofdeck’s traditions, copious quantities of grilled foodstuffs and loads of various sides will also be provided, all included in your hash cash of $10 or as part of the full weekend package. Come hungry. Very hungry.

Included in hash cash will be fabulously fashonable hash swag in the form of a high-quality TBOX nylon drawstring bag of recent vintage. Supplies are limited, first come, first served.

Also likely to manifest themselves are the traditional foofdeck shenanigans such as flippy cup and/or beer pong to carpet bomb the hash with beer back to the Stone Age. Management does politely request that all potential hook-ups be conducted off-premises as the bed linens have been freshly laundered.

After drinking (literally and figuratively) directly from this veritable fire hydrant of unbridled mayhem and debauchery, you’re probably gonna want to just go ahead and call in sick on Tuesday. Or dead. Such is the legend and lore of The Original Hash Party Foof.

You have been warned.

Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview: Hoof it to 933 W Wolfram. Go around back and take the stairs to the roofdeck. (Approx. 10 min)

Driving
Hop in your hooptie and cruise to Wolfram and Sheffield. Hoof it up to the roofdeck and plead with It’s Too Soft to give you a guest parking pass, then hoof it back down to your car to discover that you’ve already been ticketed. City’s got to get paid somehow! Or you can park on street around Jonquil Park two blocks South of Diversey at Lincoln/Sheffield/Wrightwood.

Memorial Day 2015

Memorial Day 2015
Saturday, May 23 – Monday, May 25, 2015
| Online Registration | Who’s Cumming | Sunday Potluck Info |

Summer is officially here! Come out and join the Chicago Hash House Harriers as we kick the Summer of 2015 off in style with our annual Memorial Day Celebration. This year we’ve got three days of trails, beer, and debauchery planned for your entertainment.

We’re printing up a super-limited edition tank-top shirt for this event, it is $10 extra. There will be a giveaway, we’ll be sure to let you know once we figure out what that winds up being.

Looking to save some money? Be sure to rego early for the entire weekend (Main Event & Weekend price will increase $5 on April 13, April 27, & May 11). Registration will disappear on Thursday, May 21, so if you’re not regoed by then you’ll have to pay the walk-up prices listed to the right – you snooze you lose, bitches.

To supplement the food that we have planned for the main event, and to save yourself a little cash, you can sign up to bring a potluck dish. If you sign up (by Thursday, May 21) to bring a potluck dish to share to the main event we’ll give you $5 cold cash money back the day of the event. There will be food and drinks regardless, but this will help provide a wider variety of food options and help us focus money on the important things (beer).
