CH3 #1541

Chicago Hash #1541 4.21.08 @ Bridgeport Inn & Casa de Cum On Just I Lean

Hare(s): R Tard E & Cums on I Lean
Venue: Bridgeport Inn – 2901 S. Archer Ave. @ Loomis (New Hash Bar!!!)
Hash Cash: Only $8 despite a global spike in grain prices driven by a combination of demand for biofuels and a shift in developing markets towards increased meat consumption.

Join us in the South Side as the hash explores a new bar in scenic Bridgeport. Sox are in Tampa Bay so there shouldn’t be any traffic/parking issues. Liquor Store Weather Cat says Sunny & 63 degrees!

Update 4/18 – Despite this morning’s Magnitude 5.2 earthquake – “Big One of 2008”, CH3 Mismanagement would like to assure everyone that Sunday’s hash will proceed as scheduled presuming the fires are put out and power is restored by ComEd South of 26th St.

Who knows with all the looting we may be able to score some 30 packs of Carling Black Label for the beer check! Speaking of which, canned goods (Miller, Bud, Old Style, Blatz, etc) will be collected at Sunday’s hash for disaster relief.

Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit ?
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview “The Green Zone”: Red Line to Fullerton. Brown Line to anywhere ini the Loop and transfer to Orange Line Midway (doesn’t matter which station b/c they run opposite directions and enter/exit on opposite ends so you will have to do the whole Loop one way or the other). Orange Line to Halsted, hoof it about 1/2 mile SW on Archer to Loomis. Loo-o-phobic Bus-o-philes can also take Halsted 8 down to Archer, given three track and slow zone L construction this may be the safer bet.
From Wicker Park/Bucktown: Blue Line to Clark/Lake. Orange Line to Halsted, hoof it about 1/2 mile SW on Archer to Loomis. Bus-o-philes can also catch the Halsted 8 off the Milwaukee/Grand Blue Line stop to Archer.

Driving ?
Hop into your hooptie and cruise to the corner of Archer & Loomis. Best expressway option is Stevenson to Damen and the go NE on Damen to Loomis. I believe this area is mainly industrial so it should be relatively desolate on a Sunday and parking should be as common of a sight as the Sunday Morning “Walk of Shame” is in Lincoln Park.

If you hare allergic to expressways you can also shoot down Halsted to Archer and hoof it half mile to Loomis.

CH3 #1540

Hare(s): Lower Wackoff

Venue: Gladstone Lounge – 5734 N. Milwaukee Ave

Hash Cash: A meager $8 for more fun than you can shake a stick at

Sunday April 13th at 2 PM at the Gladstone Lounge, 5734 N. Milwaukee Avenue in Chicago. Bar phone is 773 763-3385. This bar loves the hashers. They are doing a chili cookoff in the bar on the same day. Lynette the bar owner says there will be room for all of us. Trail is sure to include shiggy. On On LW

Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit

From Lincoln Park/Lakeview: This one’s a little tricky from Lincoln Park. Red Line to any major CTA East/West Bus (North Ave, Fullerton, Diversey, Belmont, Addison, Irving Park, Foster) to Milwaukee and catch the Milwaukee #56 bus Northwest to the Jefferson Park Blue Line station. Switch to the Pace #270 bus which leaves Jeff Park on the 00/20/40 minute mark of each hour and it’s about six minutes to the bar.
From Wicker Park/Bucktown: Blue Line to Jefferson Park. Switch to the Pace #270 bus which leaves Jeff Park on the 00/20/40 minute mark of each hour and it’s about six minutes to the bar.

Driving
Hop into your hooptie and cruise to Milwaukee & Mason (just North of Bryn Mawr, South of Devon). Parking is as plentiful as rats in an alley behind a restaurant in Ukrainian Village.

CH3 #1539

Chicago #1539 Sunday 4/6, 2pm @ Four Treys

Hare(s): Batteries Not Included & Calvin Klein

Venue: Four Treys – 3333 N. Damen (at Roscoe)

Hash Cash: Now $8 as per vote at the last MisManageMent Meeting, but still a great bargain given former New York governor Elliot Spitzer dropping 80 grand on hookers last year. Most of the rest of us don’t even pull down 80 large a year so we have to make due with considerably skankier ho’s.

View Larger Map

This should be interesting as a Calvin Klein trail in Roscoe Village is always full of clever stuff to confuse the pack! No food at this crib but lotsa local options and free pool!

Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview: Red Line to Belmont, Brown Line to the newly re-opened Addison stop, hoof it two blocks West to Damen and two blocks South to Roscoe. Note the Paulina Brown Line stop just closed so don’t even think about it.
From Wicker Park/Bucktown: Blue Line to Addison, Addison #152 Bus East to Damen, hoof it two blocks South on Damen to Roscoe.

Driving
Hop into your hooptie and cruise to Roscoe & Damen. Parking is usually quite findable for a yuppie ‘hood as there’s lotsa single family homes in the area but watch out for new resident permit zones which infest Lakeview like 17-year cicadas did last spring.

CH3 #1538

Hare(s): Just I Lean & Other Unindicted Co-Conspirators
Venue: She-nannigan’s – 16 W Division
Hash Cash: Still only a mere $6 despite the US Air Force awarding the $35 billion airborne-refueling tanker contract to the Northrup-Grumman/EADS consortium’s A330-based offering over the CH-3’s half barrel-based tanker proposal.

Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview: Red Line to Clark/Division, hoof it 1 1/2 blocks East to da bar.
From Wicker Park/Bucktown: Blue Line to Division, Division #70 bus East to Dearborn, bar is between Dearborn and State.

Driving
Hop into your hooptie and cruise to your nearest Red Line stop and take the L. Cheep parking is about as easy to find as Jager bombs in Mecca. If you must drive, your best bet is West towards Cabrini Green where it thins out a bit, for obvious reasons.

2008 Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle Hash Team results are up! We finished respectablly but as expected did not beat the running shoe store teams as those people are running fanactics. Too bad there isn’t a beer drinking competition because our hash team would have flipped them like a cheese omelette!
Despite the rain and cold at the postparty a good time was had by all thanks to more beer tickets than we could possibly drink (which is saying something given we are HASHERS! Mad props to returning free beer ticket harvesting Champion Or-G (also our fastest runner!) as well as Deputy beer coupon collectors Chicken Stiffer and Salty Gash. OMG I must have had at least nine myself at the postparty and the hash was the kill shot for my day!

Shamrock Shuffle Hash Team Individual Results (top two times for each sex will count for the team overall results so Or-G and I will probably be the two dudes and Chicken Stiffer and Muff will count for the bimbos).

CH3 #1533

Hare(s):Peterbuilt
Venue: Nick’s Pub – 6689 N. Oliphant Ave
Hash Cash: Still only a mere $6 and good ole-fashioned Peterbuilt food!!
