Hashing in Las Vegas - The Fossil Record

The illusory Nellis Hash House Harriers was founded sometime in 1988 by persons engaged in a then-classified project (Area 51???), and even though it's been reported that they never ran a run, the members did manage to consume enormous quantities of beer. The original Las Vegas Hash House Harriers was founded on December 1, 1990, by Steve "Dinglebuckberry" Curtis, and then reformed on April 6, 1991. Both of those early hash houses died from lack of interest, or maybe it was the heat, stupid.

 
On September 11, 1993, the Las Vegas Resur-Erection Hash House Harriers grew from the ashes of the two defunct kennels. Founded by Miss My Monkey (AKA Pecker Checker!).

Hashing under a full moon was a good part of hashing in Las Vegas, and the Sin City Full Moon Hash House Harriers ran it's first official run on March 23, 1997. Conceived by Soap Scum and founded by Koresh.

The Viva La$ Vega$ Hash House Harriers started on June 1, 1998, and expanded hashing into the Las Vegas workweek...Founded by Shit For Brains, Lootenant, Dabadoo, and Hostitute.

On Jan. 01, 2000, the Rat Pack Hash House Harriers became "The Oldest Hash in the New Millenium." Founded by Hunka Hunka Burnin' Shit.

And then there were four! Honor to Hashing in Las Vegas!

But four hashes turned out to be too much to handle for the great hashes and, in  2002, there was the Great Convergence, and the four hash houses all disbanded and reformed as the Las Vegas Hash House Harriers. Highly scientific research showed that since the rise of the Resur-Erection Hash, and including runs from all the other hash houses, there had been 651 runs. On Apr. 2, 2002, the Las Vegas Hash House Harriers ran their first run, Run #652. As of this writing, schedules and traditions are being refined, but hashing in Las Vegas is as strong as ever, if not the best yet! Cum join us sometime!

On-On and see you on trail!
