No no...roughly a guess on my part. I'm not there.
Lots of variations, though, in how many each group takes. Or gets.

Some tweets:

"The earliest you will ever see a guy awake is on alabama football game days and bid day"

"Bid day. The most important event at the University of Alabama. Second to the national championship of course."

"Bid day in Alabama is like a national holiday"

"At Alabama everyone participates in bid day, even people from other schools."

"The two most important things at Alabama happen in Bryant-Denny Stadium; Football and Bid Day."

Just found out my rec girl went Theta!

WCsweet<3 08-17-2013 01:29 PM

Of my three rec ladies: One went DG, another went Gamma Phi and a Theta!

What's funny is my twitter search found my third rec woman. I haven't heard her result from her, just stumbled across her "KAPPA ALPHA THETA!!!!!!" tweet and a picture.

greekdee 08-17-2013 02:22 PM

Results for my rec ladies: 1 Delta Gamma, 1 Gamma Phi Beta, 1 Kappa Alpha Theta and 1 Phi Mu! This is the first time I've ever done a rec and had someone go Phi Mu!

Still waiting results for one more. I know she preffed three.

Wow!! If that first number is correct, that's nearly double what the freshman quota was at Alabama just ten years ago and well more than double what it was the year before that!!

Thanks, that's the first time I ever remember them having the list up on Bid Day rather than the Monday after!! When they said it would be available on Bid Day they really meant what they said this time!!

Found my hometown girls! One is a new Kappa and the other is a Gamma Phi Beta!
