Meshuganahs AZA #2172 of the Big Apple Region is by far the craziest chapter in the Grand Order of the Aleph Zadik Aleph. Though they are small, they are mighty, and will out-do just about anything you can think of.

Much of the chapter's history was lost up until September of 2002.

What is known is that the chapter was chartered back in 1995, with its original advisor being a man named Marc Cahn. Marc then left the chapter to go start a new chapter in Flushing, Queens, Leviticus AZA, and Meshuganahs' new advisor was a man named Gregg Gordon. After Gregg left to go start a new chapter, Jeff Sipinick became the advisor, until April of 2004 when his job relocated him to Tampa, Florida. After Jeff left, an alumni of Maccabees AZA, Adam Joseph, advised the chapter for the 2004-2005 programming year. Adam then left the chapter to pursue his master's degree. For a few months, Meshuganahs was without an advisor, until Jack Friedman, the advisor of Maccabees AZA, decided to help the chapter rebuild, as it was a dying chapter. After Jack left in January of 2006, a former Regional Aleph Godol, Lawrence Nadel of Haganah AZA in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, became the advisor, and is still with the chapter and is helping it rebuild.

For the first time ever on LTI 2004, Meshuganahs AZA won the Regional Spirit Bat, which is the award for the chapter with the most spirit on a particular convention. That same year, as well as the year before, Meshuganahs won the Big Apple Region's Most Improved Chapter of the Year Award.

Four members of Meshuganahs AZA have been elected to the Big Apple Region's Regional Board: Ron Strum (Aleph Shaliach, 2003-2004), Zach Silver (Aleph Shaliach, 2005-2006), Daniel Greene (Aleph Masgiz, 2009-2010), and Logan Miller (Aleph S'gan 2010-2011).

Two members of Meshuganahs AZA have been appointed as Big Apple Regional Board Chairs: Logan Miller (Aleph S'gan 2010) and Jason Brillon (Aleph Moreh 2010)
