Need a lift

Don’t put your credit card – or your magnanimous spirit – away just yet! The Hive’s Buzz Bus has broken down and needs some help.

If you’ll remember, back in November, we stayed up until the wee hours of the morning for our readers to bring back dispatches from a late night Buzz Bus ride, which helps everyone from the slightly to highly intoxicated get home from the bars. More often than not, it’s the latter.

Now, unfortunately, the Buzz Bus needs a new engine and is out of service. The Hive is also a local nonprofit and offers the Buzz Bus free of charge (though make sure to tip your very patient driver who deals with drunk people for hours on end.)

If you’re able to help out, find more info at thehivedgo.org
