Car for bid day
 

Just don't let my daughter see this thread . . .

Well we always had our bid day pictures taken before going to a pool party or something like that. But the tradition of the pictures was 1 of the whole sorority, then two of each year. See, we always took the pictures near one of the many fountains on SLU's campus. So there was much dunking and such and the first picture was us cute and dry and the second was in the fountain splashing water all over each other.

I'm sorry, "Ride that pony" sounds hot to def.

You can do the Ginuwine Pony:

Or you could do the Fresh Prince/Carlton sort of alternative:

doo, do do do, doo doo

jump on it, get on it, jump on it!

LMAO

I'm sure this pony cheer thing is just fun and silly, and is not the crude or sexual thing some of you perverts are thinking. :D You dirty minds need some Orbitz gum.

And you need to get travelling out of your head! That's Orbit gum :P

I've seen some more pictures. Definitely not dirty, just weird.

Total highjack, but didn't the girl from those commercials play Bobbi on the Gilmore Girls?

We never did anything like this, but I think it could be fun, inside-the-group-silliness worthy, just not well suited to how we did bid day on my campus.

I just wanted to pipe up because everyone so far was all like "oh, that's embarrassing and humiliating" and "I might re-think my bid."

I wouldn't have wanted to do that on bid day at the end of rush because at that point I just wanted some comfort and relaxation, but it sounds like it be a funny thing to do at a sisterhood retreat or something.

My experience with bid day is that it had a lot more of a recruitment-best-behavior-vibe more than a wacky-be-silly together vibe. I think pictures, meeting rose sisters, maybe a cook out, and then something low key. For me a pool party would not have been low key because I've never been big on appearing in public in a bathing suit.

"ride the pony" is great! haha, i always play it with my little girls when i'm a camp counselor!

on the same lines, we always dance to "ice cream and cake" by the buckwheat boyz -- it's obnoxious and annoying, but we have a coreographed dance to it that is kinda our "thing" that we always do to pump ourselves up, and we have to teach it to our new girls!

we have in the past always rented out a roller skating rink (ice cream and cake on roller skates isn't easy, though...), but this year we rented out a bowling alley! wahoo!

and at Mizzou there are 8 (or 5, or 10 -- depending on who you talk to) "traditions" that you are supposed to do before you graduate, one of which is jumping in the fountain in the middle of campus, and most girls do that -- it's so much fun because it's usually blazing hot outside and the fountain isn't that big, so with 150+ girls jumping it gets crowded!

Bobbi?

This is older, but we did lots of pictures (the New Member class, the New Member/Violet Sister duo, any New Members who were a "group", etc, etc), then the brothers of Phi Delta Theta came over to do "Kiss and Carnation". They had a carnation for each New Member, and would present it and a (chaste) kiss to each one - a very pretty tradition. We then had an All-Greek Mixer - a very BAD idea for Bid Night!

She worked with Logan in Season 6.

I understand the nightmare you got into with the weeping members that one year, but the all Greek event just seems like such a good idea. If not bid day, certainly a big event soon after bid day or something.

I just know that at my campus there was a lot of rhetoric during recruitment about "it's great to be Greek, Panhellenic, blah, blah, blah," but when it actually came down to it, I don't think we were ever together until Greek Week, if then. Sure you had socials and events at homecoming, but unless I'm misremembering, very little was all-Greek, ever.
