Brooklyn 812 – Polar Bear Hash

January 17, 2016

Start, On-In:  Peggy O’Neils, Surf Ave, Coney Island

So, I win the lazy asshole award for this hash since I was the only person who stayed in the bar the whole time, didn’t run trail, didn’t go for a swim, didn’t even go outside to encourage those who were swimming.

If any one wants to contribute stories from trail, please email me directly: mel.etchison@gmail.com

The bar was lovely, plenty of space heaters to keep my hands warm.

Beer selection was… meh… we had Sam Adams, Coors Light.

I noticed the pack really smelled when returning from trail.  Normally, I am part of the pack, therefore part of the smell.  But for this trail, I was able to observe.

Notes from Eager For Beaver:

Hey everyone – Polar bear was great – we had an alarming number of hashers, trail was actually excellent (I’m still amazed when I get to run in areas of the city I didn’t know existed that aren’t active train tracks), tarps all worked out, hot chocolate at the beach was excellent, no one’s bags disappeared, snow fell, etc.

Barbara at Peggy’s must have thrown us a bunch of buybacks, since hash cash lasted well into the evening. I believe at some point we kicked in some kitty money.  She says we’re welcome back anytime, which we should take her up on for some upcoming next difficult-to-get-to start.
YAY!!!! We didn’t piss off a bar and they want us to come back.
