Hockessin Hash #1018
So, the slobbering pack met up in the parking lot of that little shopping center between Rt 7, Millcreek Rd, and McKennan’s Church Road for the 8th annual Mardi Gras hash, on the fine not yet spring day of March the 1st, 2014 AD.  Hashers I remember being present before during or after the hash: Dead End, Sputnik, Gizz Specialist, Circle Jerk, Do Me on the Beach, Rug Burn, Just Tony, Lost Penis, Skidmarks, The Hasher Formerly Known As Schporto, Ass Hopper, Wetter the Better, Cause for Blindness, Flounder, Mary Fucking Poppins, Wingnuts, Bunions Bitch, Just Fiona, Porta-Ho, Mount Me, Groper, Just Bonny, Cousin It, Smells Like Hash Spirit, Just JP, Devil Woman, Butthead, Pedal File, Cribsnatcher, Lick It Clean, and many, many others.
Our hares for the day were Bunion Butt and Wet-Lay who treated us with several servings each of their own, very strong hurricane mix in honor of that grand old party going down in the Big Easy this week.  Not that it was that cold, at least compared to the past 14 weekends, but a number of us were there rather early and had quite a buzz going on before 3pm hash time, and so we left on time yet again.  Another reminder, if you want to make a Hockessin hash, don’t wait until half past three o’clock to leave your house, although that would probably be okay for most hashes in this wonderful world of ours.
On! On!
The chalk talk was done, with Bunion Butt putting down an arrow going in the general direction of Limestone Road, most of the pack starts walking/ running behind the shopping center, but no-one seems to find a mark.  Bunion Butt stands there for a little while, than walks the other way.  Wet Lay, who it turns out had nothing to do with the actual laying of the marks, climbs up a hill and around a fence, and a bunch of us follow her, a bunch of people follow Bunion Butt who sticks to the asphalt.  Several people crash or slip on the hill and going over the fence.
On! On!
Trail goes through some type of National Guard facility, but nobody gets machined gunned down, a surprise to me.  We hit the woods and go down a hill, out into a neighborhood, behind an apartment complex and back into the woods again.
On! On!
We go along the Mill Creek, for what seems to be miles and miles.  Eventually we run into the trail hared by Circle Jerk the previous week, but most of us have the sense to follow the fresher marks. We go up and down the rolling hills and through a mighty fine briar patch, before coming across a path and the H5 mark, that we were told meant more hurricane drinks near, but they were only as near as the hare was who was carrying them.  Some of the FRB’s grow impatient, knowing it might be a few minutes before the drinks arrive and decided to finish trail on their own, but the rest of us who stuck around got to enjoy another round, before going back on trail again.
On! On!
Trail goes down the same path it went the previous week, then unexpectedly takes a left into the woods for awhile eventually taking a U-turn back the way we came then going to the right.  Eventually we come out to Delcastle Golf course, where a couple of chaps were finishing up a game. Trail eventually comes out to Mckennan’s Church Rd. and down the hill back to the On In, with Wingnuts finishing first out of the people who did the whole trail, and who stuck around for the drink stop.
We hang out in the parking lot for a while waiting for Wet Lay and the last couple of people to come in, but with the rest of the pack growing impatient, I eventually took the hint and started the Circle without them, and they made it back a few minutes later.  Penalties and awards were dished out. Songs were sung, and announcements were made.
We then adjourned to the Pub for the Après, where we enjoyed some mighty fine grub including the standard Jezebel sauce, muffuletta sandwiches and some red beans and rice, sans the rice. And we also entertained ourselves with the tradition of applauding every random person who walked into the bar as we always do when we go to Carney’s Pub.  But all and all it was another shitty trail. Stay tuned for Hockessin Hash # 1018 this Saturday.
On! On!
