The movie was and will always be a classic for me.
I was a pledge in Kappa Sigma Fraternity at the University of Florida when that movie came out, the Brothers took a bunch of us to see the movie.
Every Fraternity in those days could relate to Delta Tau Chi, we all had guys who could have been inspiration for characters in the movie.
The political correctness and liberalization of college campuses these days would have shut our house down and kicked us off campus for any number of things we did.
Our Fraternity was not that much different with respect to the things we did, just a different era back then.
Gator alumni here. UF had it’s own Deltas - the Kappa Alpha house. House was across the street from the main campus. Had a cannon on the front lawn. They were remodeling the library and one hungover KA fired the cannon at the construction workers.
Don’t know how many times the KAs were on probation but rumor was they never got off probation. This mid-60s, the Spurrier years.
I pledged a local which made Animal House seem like a documentary,
Date in a shopping cart: check!
Booze beyond belief: check!
Things which wouldn’t be believed today: check!
