Around 20 hashers showed up for a trip around Tonawanda led by Mouthful of Girlfriend and Hare Llama. The pack met at Rizzo's right next door to the Brighton Eggert Animal Hospital. Out of towners making it across the international border included Bonkers and Moho from Oakville (actually Niagara Falls, Ontario.) Just Dan of Holidaze Keg Standing fame made it to his 1st Buffalo trail along with Just Ryan but they would not be "Justs" by the end of the day.
Destructions were given and we were told that we would not cross any "busy" streets unless there was an arrow. A new sign - SA, meant you had to make a Snow Angel or Show Ass. Trail started up Brighton to what I think is Kenmore East High School and through their parking lot and the Hare's first apology for not telling us about backchecks. We were backchecked to a tricky spot because there were no footprints in the snow that led to true trail. We crossed a snowbank and found marks leading to the SA. Crash and Gazelleria took the other option and we were back on trail. We looped back up Eggert and were circle jerked .6 of a mile to the 1st BN / JSN.
Trail was tough to find from the 1st check but we finally wound our way down Eggert. The hare apologized a 2nd time since we crossed Eggert without an arrow. We headed down some street I don't remember leading to Sheridan Drive. I figured we were heading to Mount Me's but trail took some alleyways parallel to Sheridan and a giant BN in a snow pile leading us to the apparently non-busy Eggert again and The Buffalo Tap Room. We downed 5 or so pitchers of beer and left the bar after singing to the barmaid.
Trail circled around the back of the plaza and just under .3 of a mile to the 3rd BN / Pudding Shot stop in the parking lot. I reached the BN first and was wondering if it was another BN mark for the Tap Room but realized it was #3 when the walkers approached. The pudding shots were excellent and we sang a round of Chicago. Trail led on in down Eggert and back to Rizzo's for the circle.
Crash and Mount Me ran their first Co-RA circle where Just Dan was named Snatchaphobia for his facial expression caught in a pic while helping ouy a kilt wearing hasherette with a kegstand. Just Ryan practically named himself while proclaiming he wouldn't cum back - Thank You! We all chipped in and ate a lot more pizza than I thought we could.
Shitty trail Mouthful and Hare Llama!
