2020 - The Year the Never Was
Posted: 2020-12-12 by MG

Well folks, here we are at the end of another year. One which I am sure nobody will miss! As the COVID-19 pandemic rages on and we endure another round of economy-crippling shutdowns and restrictions, it’s sometimes hard to find things to be thankful for. Christmas will certainly look different this year without the traditional gatherings of friends and family, so I encourage everyone to raise a glass and reach out to those who may be feeling lonely this holiday season in true BHON style.

The pandemic also took its toll on BHON activities this past year. Although we adapted to using Zoom meetings and getting together on makeshift patios in bar parking lots, it certainly wasn’t the same. Once the province finally moved into Stage 3 reopening, we were the first to return to our favourite establishments, albeit wearing facemasks and having to follow strange new protocols. When Niagara’s chief medical officer Dr. Hirji imposed Section 22 orders on the entire region at the beginning of November, it pretty much shut us down for the rest of the year. A huge shout out to Mike B for offering up his basement clubhouse for the past few weeks so that we could finish the year properly. Ironically, it would be these types of private gatherings that the Health Unit was hoping to avoid happening in the first place....

We also want to raise a glass to all of the bar and restaurant owners, servers and hospitality workers out there who have struggled through this past year. We know it hasn’t been easy and we appreciate the effort you have all put in to try and keep the doors open for us to return. We also encourage everyone to continue to support their local establishments, despite the restrictions. Order a take-out meal, pop in for lunch with family from your household, or someone ’essential’ to your wellbeing. Be cheerful with your servers and don’t be a dick about following the rules. It’s not their fault, nor their responsibility to police your actions.

As for the coming new year...everyone is placing their hopes on a vaccine rollout to finally end this. I am cautiously optimistic, but only time will tell.

A peaceful Christmas to all, or whatever you choose to celebrate. See you all on the other side!

BHON 24th Anniversary
Posted: 2020-09-13 by MG

Well folks, it’s that time of the year again when we celebrate another milestone for our group.
This year BHON turns 24!!!
Who knew we’d be spending it in the midst of a world-wide pandemic?!?

Normally I would be more enthusiastic about such an occasion, but with this whole coronavirus bullshit going on we’re all just living day to day at the moment. I don’t think anyone is looking back on 2020 with any fondness and everyone is wondering when this will finally be over. We are all thankful that most of our favourite wing establishments have managed to survive through the shutdown and hopefully can continue to hang on once patio season winds down.

Nonetheless, join us Thursday, September 17th at Hooligan’s in Stamford plaza to help us celebrate. Perhaps there might be Guinness or chicken wings or something along those lines. Don’t forget your face masks, hand sanitizer, social distancing and blah blah blahbity blah blah. Fucking covid......

 




BHON Pbbbbt of the Month - Coronavirus Edition v2!
Posted: 2020-09-13 by MG

As the pandemic continues, we’d like to remind everyone to continue to follow proper social distancing and hand washing procedures to prevent the spread of the virus. 

But really....here’s just some pictures of tits because all this all this coronavirus bullshit has me depressed.




BHON COVID-19 Updates
Posted: 2020-05-18 by MG

So the coronavirus pandemic continues, although we are seeing some signs of optimism as the government slowly begins relaxing lockdown restrictions. When the bars will finally reopen is anybody’s guess, but we’ll be ready! We’re guessing things won’t be getting back to normal right away, but when the day comes that we’re actually allowed to go out for beers again, it will be a cause for celebrations! 

In the meantime, BHON members can join us thursday nights at the usual time on Zoom. BYOB and BYOW (bring your own wings). It certainly doesn’t feel the same as a real BHON night, but it’s better than nothing and a nice opportunity to see some familiar faces after two months of being cooped up in the house.
