I’ve been to plenty of beer drinking parties myself

But did you ever go to any house not knowing who owns it? Unless the house was vacant, somebody there had to be in charge, especially if the parents were away.
“did you ever go to any house not knowing who owns it?”
Yes. 99% of the time I at least knew of the student who lived there, even if I didn’t find out until the last minute.
There were some I had no idea who owned it, but was with friends so had no concerns about it.
Keep in mind I’m not on Ford’s side. The whole bit, even if true is just adolescent behavior which I summarily dismiss.
I don’t know if it matters, but more on this as I reminisce.
The county has the full run of urban to country. And at that time, there were no seatbelt laws, airbags, or even such a thing as DUI. There was DWI, but not really enforced. (DUI is the “in between” charge, with a lower threshhold of BAC.)
In fact, I had a high school encounter with police while drinking & driving around with friends, the cop only had us pour out the opens and dump the rest in the nearby trashcan (we were on GW Parkway).
It was common for us to “cruise around” and I’d say our range was typically MoCo and DC. If we knew of a party, we’d stop but not usually stay for the duration. We’d hand out an hour or two and keep on movin.
Knowing the time and area, I can dismiss the ludicrous claims of gang rapes, etc.. Chalk it up to more innocent times, but that kind of crap was simply unheard of.
And NO ONE would get away with getting a chick pass-out drunk for sex without being thought as the ultimate loser. Better to be a virgin for life or have sex with squirrels.
