Gotta love them Greeks

[Mischka]

The undergrad student newspaper is such a source of unintentional humor. A front page article explained that the campus police confiscated 1,098 bottles of beer and 12 bottles of hard liquor from the main cabins of two buses that were chartered for a weekend getaway by a local fraternity. On board the buses were 80 passengers, of which only two were of legal drinking age.

The fraternity issued a statement, saying that members over 21 purchased the alcohol and "only those of legal drinking age were to consume it." Let's see, that's 1,098 bottles, divided by two, plus 6 bottles of hard liquor each, equals two really fucked up 21 year olds. Wonder what their blood alcohol level would have been?

Sorry, I thought you meant real Greeks. I kept wondering when they would come into the story.

It was a Herculean amount of beer.

groan....

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

And a lie of Olympic proportions.

Also in the student rag: "A student's car had been broken into [in one of the parking garages] and the thieves took the in-dash television unit, headrest television units, 10 DVDs, a stereo, speakers, amplifier, DVD player, digital camera, camcorder, and several other items."

This person had a more complete entertainment system in his car than I have in my home.

You might say your home is Spartan in comparison.

I have more. Oh yes -- I have more....

They were gonna sing the bottles of beer on the wall song to make the trip go faster.


1098 bottles of beer on the wall,
1098 bottles of beer,
Take one down pass it around 1097 bottles of beer on the wall.....

That would be a serious road trip. They could get all the way to Vermont's Circle Jerk Festival with that many bottles.


(Which is over 13 bottles per passenger, not counting the hard liquor. Good gawd.)

I had friends in college who bought a case of beer per night for the weekend. They've got a tremendous tolerance built up.

And everyone knows that frat rats can hold their liquor.

It is all in the wrist - I did a case of beer and two fifths of wine one night. That was the only time I ever passed out while drinking, and the only time I blacked out (couldn't remember two hours). They found me outside face down in the mud in the pouring rain.

The cause? Why a woman of course!

One boisterous reveler who denied drinking anything was heard asking the police officer "What Parthenon don't you understand?"














Yeah, that was bad.

those are not real greek. I am offended that a bunch of beer guzzling yahoos have the nerve to call themselves greek.
