NZ Fat Catz run, Waiau, 31st Jan 2019
Well over a 100 hot and thirsty hashers crowded the Waiau tavern for the 7th ? “running” of the Fat Katz 2019. The usual good natured chaos of pies, beer, tee-shirts and very little exercise. After a few hours of beer and more beer the “run” kicked off with a spring across the road to the park where an old jail soon hosted Father from Rotorua hash - one of only 2 NZ hashes to have chalked up 2000 runs and the originator of NZ Fat Katz. Other fines were dispensed by Xerox and Toyboy before an arduous return journey back to the pub.
