Warner Robins, GA - Houston Lake Rd and SR 96
A moderate sized
group of runners showed up for the inaugural run of the Warner
Robins Hash House Harriers. Among the named were ButHisNut,
Cheaper, Lemon Nads, Bone-a-Lisa and Jungle Pussy. The rest
of the rag-tag group were either No-Namers or Virgins. Mismanagement
was pleased at the turn-out and proceeded to do the best they
could to give the crowd what they wanted.
ButHisNut kneeled
on the ground as the appointed RA, No-Name Pat, blessed him
as the hare. As ButHisNut took off marking the parking lot
of the Winn Dixie, the rest of us wondered what we were in
for. After a ten-minute wait, the pack was off. There were
a few front runners, and a couple stragglers, but the bulk
of the group managed to stay together for the most part. Through
a ditch and into a sub-division, a handful of the hounds began
to disregard property lines - running in yards to catch the
rest of the pack. On-lookers gazed upon us with awe and wonder
as we went running by their houses. Through a field and across
a few roads later, we reached the beer stop.
No-Name Vickie
and No-Name Nikki were awaiting us all with cold beer and
a tail-gate to rest on if needed. Some stopped and drank,
others pressed on to find the trail once more and chase ButHisNut.
As the trail went on, we all found ourselves learning quickly
what the indigenous plant-life with thorns looked like. Doing
our best to avoid it wasn't enough, the shiggy was thick.
We weaved and turned all through various small trees and thick
low-lying shiggy until finally emerging onto a very familiar
road that we had run down just before the beer stop.
Following the road
down, the end was found just behind a hole-in-the-wall bar
called Bahama Bob's. From there, the circle ensued. There
was much rejoicing at the sight of beer by the hounds, and
much wincing at the splashes of rubbing alcohol on bleeding
legs. After all were in, ButHisNut called everyone to circle
up and the formalities began. Everyone was welcomed to the
inaugural run of WRHHH and thanked for coming along. After
some pomp with little circumstance, the virgins were called
into the circle to be blessed. No-Names Mike, Nick, Wendy,
Nicky, Dave and Becca were brought to their knees and blessed
with flour as first time hashers.
Violations were
called for whining and using nerd-names on trail, all that
committed them drank except No-Name Wendy who was driving.
No-Name Vickie had forgotten to bring water or soda for the
driver, so No-Name Wendy was allowed to appoint a drinker.
Jungle Pussy was called into the circle for the honors.
Namings occurred
also. The first to get named was the RA No-Name Pat. Many
questions were asked... many stories were told. The Hash deliberated,
voted... then voted again. From this day forth, No-Name Pat
was to be known as Rectal Ranger. Research into the name later
found another hasher has that name already, so there may be
a re-naming.
The second naming
was for the Hareraiser and Hashscribe, No-Name Brandon. Again
there were questions and again many stories... and yes the
hash deliberated and voted. From this day forth, No-Name Brandon
will be known as Homo Erectus.
The GM, though
it was his first time, missed a couple key points in the circle.
First of all, the Hash Shit was not handed out. Secondly,
Lemon Nads said plainly that he was wearing new shoes. At
no point did he drink from them. There was more then likely
others, but he is not fessing up to them.
