BFM 257: Big Pack
I decided it would be a good idea to write the trash having slept 6 of the previous 72 hours. Of course that means the trash needs another hidden theme; you know something minimal, but not too flamboyant. Life just off the north sea hasn’t been too bad yet; my evangelical project manager hasn’t asked me how I feel about Jeebus recently, but I still get this feeling like I don’t know what he wants, but I can’t give it anymore. After I finish the trash I have to put on a bright orange jacket and venture outside. We can choose between a fluorescent orange and a fluorescent yellow uniform here. With the constant fog and gloom, we had several people almost run over by the speedball chasing truck drivers we hire. Management recognized the problem, and instead of paying for qualified personnel, they issued ridiculously reflective vests and jackets to all. Se a vida e
Anyhoo, back in philly last week a large crowd of hashers assembled, and Rear called circle together, The combination of the two best running and drinking clubs in philly poured out of Cavanaughs. Not to brag or anything, but we were stopping traffic. I like to think it was because everyone recognized that I looked absolutely fabulous, but realistically the huge crowd of half minds behind and in front of me might have had something to do with it. I hadn’t seen a BFM crowd that big since prom or green dress. It felt like being in the middle of the stampede, and I’m not sure exactly who it was, but I definitely was “accidentally” groped several times.
At the start of trail, most of the fishtown runners had a look on their face that said, “I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing” and trail continued through west philly, University City doing loop-d-loops until I was thoroughly lost and 2 Clump actually wasn’t at the front. Eventually trail led back to drexel’s campus, then across the bridge and into TA Flannerty. Usually they are more than accommodating, but apparently 50 people showing up sweaty and unannounced scaring away the classy customers (all 3 of them), and our usually friendly bartender was not happy. Little Red and SOGF did their best to keep him happy, but I’m not so sure if we are going to get one more chance at this place in the future

After circle, the pack gradually filtered upstairs and began awkwardly hitting on the new hashers. Left to his own devices, Virgin Pimp was in danger of apoplexy with all the new arrivals, but then again we all do look better in the dark.
