Blooming Fools Hash House Harriers

The Blooming Fools are very much alive, hashing every other Saturday and on the evenings of the full moons. Email jbranigin@gmail.com for hash starting locations.

Yes, the Blooming Fools hash is alive! We hash every other Saturday at 4pm (3pm in winter) and once a month at 7pm on the evening of the full moon (6pm in winter). We don’t allow people on our Facebook page until they’ve hashed with us at least once (for reasons), but if you’re interested in knowing the start location for the next hash, email me at jbranigin@gmail.com!

Hash this week will take place on Saturday, November 19, starting at 3pm from the north parking lot of Bryan Park (off Stull Ave). It’ll be the usual $7 for returners, free for newbies. There should be more information about this trail, but the hare has yet to elaborate, so be assured there’ll be a crappy trail and beer and hash camaraderie. Join us!

Where: Olcott Park
When: 7pm, Tuesday, Nov 8

You’ve rolled back the clock on Sunday. (Welcome to the first time-adjusted trail of the season!)

You’ve woken early on Tuesday to witness the Blood Moon pass in front of Uranus. (According to SkyGuide, totality is 5:16 AM to 6:41 AM in Bloomington. The next Blood Moon is May 14, 2025. The next lunar/Uranus “occultation” is in 2235. So, enjoy this while you can!)

You’ve voted and didn’t instigate or participate in an insurrection. (Polls are open 6 AM to 6 PM.)

You’ve stretched. (To make room for beer and snacks.)

Now, join your hares UPP and Moneyshot (Team Panther-Shot) on this meager misadventure. This trail will re-break your internal clock, sacrifice blood to the celestials, and exercise your democratic rights as hash citizens.

Bring your light, whistle, and aspirations.

This hash is on FIRE!!! Well… Guy Fawkes’ effigy is on fire… because it’s Guy Fawkes Night!

In honor of this irreverent wank of a British subject and PROTESTER, we plan to be even more lit than usual (if possible) by donning as much red and flames (and flame-retardant) covering as possible! You get a very hashy bonus if you are sporting red hair as part of your flaming, wanktastic get-up because it’s also NATIONAL LOVE YOUR RED HAIR DAY! Basically it saves the hares the time of having to light you on fire so it’s a win-win. Additional bonus points if you wear a Guy Fawkes/V for Vendetta/Anonymous mask.

But seriously, pick your protest and wear some flames to burn all the things that aren’t right with this shitty world!!!

Let the debauchery and good times roll!

Cost: $7 for regulars, free to first-time hashers!
