Hash Cash: Pay As You Go
From da GM: Lifa & O'Shitty Runch will be your hares for this romp through the historic Logan Square neighborhood (and current "it" neighborhood for Chicago's hipster population) - for the walkers of the group this will be a traditional Pub Crawl, but for those who wants to witness the Winter Wonderland that is Chicago, Lifa & O'Shitty Runch are assured to provide a trail with multiple beer stops (not just at the bars). Participants are expected to pay as you go, but we are working with local bars to get the best drink specials possible for all of you. We'll be starting the whole thing off at Green Eye Lounge (2403 W. Homer St), which is right underneath the Western Blue Line stop, so it is especially easy to get to.

Driving
Don't drive to a pub crawl, you're just asking for a DWI. If you must drive, hop in your hooptie and cruise to Homer and Western. There's probably more parking to the West of Western, but don't hold me to that.

From da GM: This year the Chicago Hash House Harriers are pulling out all of the stops in order to provide you with a truly memorable hashing experience in celebration of the Tenth Annual Great Chicago Anthrax Scare & Santa Hat Run. Working in conjunction with Thirstday H3, Bushman H3, and Second City H3, the Chicago Hash House Harriers are proud to present four days, six trails, and one great city.
This is it, the main event.
Join us in donning Santa hats as we run around the Lincoln Park and Old Town neighborhoods of Chicago. We'll have trails for both runners and walkers as veteran Chicago hare R Tard E is joined by Licker Leash and WJew40 for what will certainly be a especially shitty trail (rumor has it that they've been planning this trail for months, so you wankers better try extra hard to spoil it for them).
Your rego gets you an event tag, an event bag, a private party at Burton's Place in a private room, and an epic circle. Rego early to save yourself some cash and ensure that you'll get the giveaways.
As an added bonus, we'll have Anthrax hoodies for sale for the low price of $20 (image at right). These are not included in your rego, as we decided to give away bags but then found out there was a huge demand for another, more traditional, give away. There may be other shirts, and the new patches and keychains may be in by then as well, so bring your wallets and stock up on Haberdashery - they make great stocking stuffers for your Hash Mistress.
Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview: Hop aboard the Brown Line and ride on down to the Sedgewick stop - walk North to ... North, then head East to Wells. Turn South and walk half a block and the bar is on the East side of the street.
From Wicker Park/Bucktown: Get on the 72 North Ave Bus heading East. Stay on the bus until you get to Wells. Exit the bus, turn South, and walk half a block and the bar is on the East side of the street.
Driving
Don't kid yourself, you're not driving to this disaster because you know there's no way you'd be able to drive home. Also, you can't leave your car in this neighborhood without getting a ticket, so don't even think about it.

Chicago Marathon Beer Stop
Chicago Marathon Beer Stop
Sunday 10/09 - 9:00 AM
Venue: Approximately at Mile Marker 23 - Corner of 33rd & LaSalle St
View Larger Map
From da GM: Once again, Chicago hashers will be gathering near Mile Marker 23 (the corner of 33rd and LaSalle) to hand out beer to those crazy enough to run the Chicago Marathon. Since this is a volunteering opportunity, we're asking everyone to bring booze and dixie cups so that we can better hand out beer to the runners. If you are coming, it is also important to remember that thanks to Chicago's archaic laws, you cannot buy beer on Sunday until 11AM, so plan ahead and buy a case on Saturday.
If you forget to get booze beforehand, don't worry - you're still welcome to come and assist and hang out. The more the merrier. Signs are also strongly encouraged to show support for your fellow racist hashers. It is also strongly encouraged that you bring your hashing clothes, since a large number of us will be hopping on the Red Line and heading right to the hash. If you have any problems finding where we'll be, just look for the following intersection, as made famous by the movie Source Code.
Environmentally-Friendly Public Transit
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview: Get on the Red Line and head towards 95th/Dan Ryan. Exit the train at 35th/Sox Park and take the 33rd St Exit (that's away from US Cellular Field, you boneheads). Once you're up to the street, head East on 33rd St. If you can't find us you're either blind or stupid.
From Wicker Park/Bucktown: Get on the Blue Line and head into the Loop. Transfer over to the Red Line and head towards 95th/Dan Ryan.

Once you're up to the street, head East on 33rd St. If you can't find us you're either blind or stupid.
Driving
Don't even try it. Everything is going to be shut down for the marathon, so even if you're able to get your car down there you're probably going to run into a ton of parking problems.

| Wednesday - Dec 14th, 6pm - Wingsday & Chicago H3 Drinking Practice - Pay As You Go Wednesday is the roughest day of the week, right? Not with $0.25 wings and $1 cans of PBR it isn't. We'll be meeting up at 6pm at our usual haunt of O'Malley's West (2249 N. Lincoln Ave), but it won't be just any other Wingsday - our old friend Beer Spill Valdez will be back in town for one last night of debauchery before he continues on his way to California. Everyone come on out to say goodbye (again) to our former RA, and if you're lucky there will be a few karaoke ballads sung your way. |

Think Chicago is just streets, alleys, and city parks? Think again!

Transportation to Anthrax's main event will be provided for all of those who wish to run both trails.
Here are the exact directions to this trail (according to Horn E): Take the blue line to Jefferson Park or the red line to Berwyn and then take the foster bus. Go to Cicero and then walk north about one block. The entrance to the woods is on the right/east side of the street and is a road into the woods and over the expressway. Then go into the north parking lot. Driving, take I 94 north to Foster and take it west bound to Cicero, just over the expressway. Turn right and go north one block and take the first right into the woods and over the bridge and then go north. Coming from the north, take I 94 south to Edens, a gently slopping road down to Cicero. Go about one block and there will be a entrance into the woods on the left, over a bridge and then go to your left at the fork. Taking Metra, get off at Forest Glen and walk directly east to Cicero. This should be just about at the entrance to the woods. Follow above directions. |

Lincoln Ave) and will run late into the night, so if your liver hasn't taken enough punishment already be sure to come out for a night to remember. | View Larger Map |
Coming in from out of town? Not to worry. There are plenty of options for getting to and from Chicago. You can always fly in O'Hare (ORD) or Midway (MDW), take the Amtrack in to Union Station, take the Mega Bus, or you could even carpool up with your closest hash friends.
Need crash space? Don't worry about that either - shoot the Chicago H3 a message either in the comments, in our Yahoo! Group, on our Facebook page, via e-mail, or over our twitter, and we'll do our best to set you up with a welcoming hasher. If you don't want to stay with hasher, that's cool too - the Chicago H3 suggests finding a room at the Days Inn Lincoln Park or at the Chicago Getaway Hostel, but be advised that no group rate has been procured from these institutions.
