‘Ello, lads and lassies! Yes, it’s that time of year again…time when we’re
all just a wee bit Irish. And can you think of a better way to celebrate St.
Patty’s weekend than to don your loveliest green frock, run around our fine
city, and enjoy the laughter and confused stares of strangers? Yeah, neither
can we.
On Saturday, March 15th, join the Pittsburgh Hash House Harriers in our
annual Green Dress Hash!
This year’s Green Dress Hash will begin in Pittsburgh’s Lawrenceville
neighborhood at Belvedere’s Ultra Dive at 4016 Butler St, Pittsburgh, PA
15201. We’ll be meeting at 2pm and will be on the road no later than 3pm. If
you get there after we leave, you’re still more than welcome to join us, but
you’re on your own as far as finding out where we are once we’ve left
Belvedere’s.
From there, we’ll strut our sexy selves all around the Larryville area,
enjoying several beer stops along the way. Your lovely and talented
co-hares, Purple Princess and Old Crusty Dick, will cover some of them, but
some of them will be your responsibility, so be sure to bring cash and ID on
trail. After a few hours of freaking out the city, we’ll return to
Belvedere’s for a post-Hash celebration and to bask in our sweaty,
green-clad beauty.
There are two-hour limits on the meters around Belvedere’s, but the meters
stop around 45th street, so we suggest parking up there and walking to
Belvedere’s. You can also try parking in the PNC Bank lot across from
Belvedere’s, as they’re closed on Saturdays, but we don’t know if they tow
or not, so do that at your own risk.
For non-Hashers, you don’t have to run. Anyone is more than welcome to walk
the trail, and shortcuts will be provided for those who ask for them. You
also don’t have to drink beer at the beer stops, as we’ll also be providing
plenty of water. But you DO have to wear a green dress. Even the men. Yes,
even the men.
Anyone and everyone is welcome, but you should be at least 21 and have a
sense of humor. Boring or uptight people should stay away. Seriously. Find
something else to do that day. Dogs are welcome on trail, but not at apres
and at least one beer stop along the way.
This year, we’re asking for a $5 donation (same as last year) to help with
our expenses. You’ll get well more than that in return, so quitcherbitchin’.
