  1. That's funny, because that sounds exactly how most people associate in every day life outside of fraternities.
  2. Why on God's green earth would you subject them to that? bad blood? My sister is a student at CU. Parents are visiting her that weekend. Ha ha! A Michigan fan named "Manhattan" with a sister at CU? Don't take this the wrong way--but you have some pretty screwed up demographics. I am not a M*ch*gan fan. I'm an Ohio State student/fan. If you want the whole breakdown: (We're From NY, this is a list of relevant football fans in my immediate family, not entire family, as I have six sister and four parents.) Me: Ohio State Twin Sister: Colorado Stepsister 1: USC Stepsister 2: Northwestern Dad: Yale Stepdad: Notre Dame

  4. That works out for me because I am Jewish. Half of the chapter at OSU is from New York and New Jersey, so there is a good connection already. Thankfully, no guidos. I'll be able to tell if I really like the fraternity in the coming weeks. I am also going to an AEPi dinner tomorrow. I have been told to avoid TKE.
  5. My sister and parents will be at that game. I will ask them how it goes down.
  6. Northwestern and Michigan State are the traditional spoilers.
  7. So I went to my first OSU frat party last at Sigma Alpha Mu (Sammy). It is the largest frat house in the country and they hosted an unbelievable party. Terrelle Pryor even showed up. The brothers were all very friendly and showed me a good time. I didn't think I would ever consider joining a fraternity, but now I am considering rushing for this fraternity. Do any of you have experiences with fraternities? What are the benefits of being in one? How much of a time commitment are they? What sort of hazing goes on? Thanks in advance.
  8. What are you talking about...?
  9. How many "chrewy" chips ahoy cookies did you eat the other night? As a conservative estimate, maybe fourteen or sixteen.

  11. Welcome to the forum. Beware of the Big Ten trolls.
  12. I just woke up thinking about this. Don't know why. The apartment I live in is numbered 909, here in NYC, Located on 666 Greenwich St. My dorm room at Ohio State is numbered 303, Located on 101 Curl Drive, Zip code 43210. My NYC area code is 212, The area code of Columbus, Ohio, is 614, which doesn't seem like a correlation until: 212 = II I II 614 = VI I IV The last four digits of my phone number are 6481, which is eight-squared, nine squared (8x8 = 64, 9x9 = 81). :ahhhhhhhh :ahhhhhhhh
  13. My favorite steakhouse here in NYC is Peter Luger's, perhaps you have heard of it? I've only been there twice for my father's birthday because it is pretty pricey. It probably isn't as good as the elite of the west though. http://www.peterluger.com/
  14. I found a great Big Ten tailgate guide at an Ohio State tailgate site: http://www.cletusfest.org/bigten.htm They review the tailgate experience at all Big Ten schools. Here is how they rate them (they have a guide explaining why): Wisconsin: :star :star Penn State: :star :star Minnesota: :star :star Ohio State: :star :star Michigan State: :star :star M*ch*gan: :star Purdue: :star Illinois: :star Northwestern: :star Iowa: (EDIT: It appears their Iowa review got mixed up with their Indiana review somehow. This can't be right.) Indiana:
  15. I hear Ohio State doesn't have such an impressive tailgate scene, and from looking around the campus, I think the fact that it is urban inhibits a lot of tailgating. I've tailgated at Wisconsin, USC, Colorado, and Yale, and I would put them in order like this: Wisconsin >>>>> USC > Yale (quite impressive actually, especially against Harvard) >> Colorado Looking forward to tailgating at Ohio State soon and I'll let you guys know how it compares. Wisconsin was truly amazing, by the way. Yale is great because all of the tailgating takes place on green fields nestled near the bowl and not actual parking lots, so it is really a great picnic atmosphere. Lots of room to throw the football around and what not. The walk to the bowl is also very cool.
  16. Of course, but I don't think defense was ever in question for Nebraska. Offense is what is going to determine if you get a BCS bowl or not.
  17. This seems like a quality group you have there. Really good fan spirit between the two teams and I love seeing that. I think this rivalry is going to be very competitive going forward, despite what some Husker fans may think.
  18. How did your dog become a Washington fan in the first place? Sounds like bad parenting to me.
  19. what about wisconsin? I think he means "colors" in a broader term, like their identifying fabric. Like how battle standards are referred to as "colors". The fact that Nebraska shares common colors with Wisconsin doesn't mean that either fan base is treasonous for dually wearing the others' colors. It would only be so if you actually wore Wisconsin merchandise.
