Yea for the Greeks! I'm having to follow the pageant through this thread because the MALES in this family have pre-empted the TV for the Georgia Southern football game--:mad:

ADPiAkron 09-18-2004 10:10 PM

Update--

Miss California and Miss Louisiana are left in the top 5!!

velouria 09-18-2004 10:21 PM

I could do without the Clay Aiken, but I love watching these. =)

honeychile 09-18-2004 10:33 PM

I am SO EXCITED that they didn't ask stupid, throw-away questions, but real, "this is a scholarship competition" ones!

ADPiAkron 09-18-2004 10:41 PM

Let's go Louisiana!! She is the only greek left-- way to represent Chi O! ;)

Well, if anyone knows the girls personally they could post about them too. I know Miss Kentucky because I went to both high school & UK w/ her so I posted in the ADPi forum to tell them when she won! :D

honeychile 09-18-2004 10:42 PM

So, it's Miss Louisiana or Miss Alabama!

Are we SURE there's no GLO connection for Miss Alabama?!

honeychile 09-18-2004 10:53 PM

DO NOT GO TO ANY OF THE MISS AMERICA SITES!!!!

The winner is already listed!

velouria 09-18-2004 10:53 PM

I'm so rooting for Miss Louisiana, but only since Miss California is gone now. ( I really liked her

I got all but one of the scholarship questions right. I love trivia.

ADPiAkron 09-18-2004 10:58 PM

MISS AMERICA 2005 IS MISS ALABAMA!!

velouria 09-18-2004 10:58 PM

ADPiAkron 09-18-2004 10:59 PM

I went to the Miss LA & Miss AL sites, and the Miss Alabama site had her listed. I out the warning before I had a chance to get to the Miss America site.

I really liked Miss LA, but hated her evening gown. It's possibly a "thing" I have, because I don't care for animal prints, but the dress didn't flatter her cute figure, either!

Oh, well - Congratulations to Miss Alabama!

Doesn't matter which one...takes you to the same site.

ADPiAkron 09-18-2004 11:06 PM

I didn't see it on Miss Alabama's site-- it just said she won the Quality of Life award!!

Also, Miss Louisiana had the leopard dress on, not Cali!! :)

ETA: But it does say on Louisiana that she was 1st runner up!!

velouria 09-18-2004 11:06 PM

haven't found a greek link for her, so who knows.

but anyway, congratulations to her!

Yeah, I was typing too fast when I said CA instead of LA.

The Miss Alabama site at
http://www.missalabama.com/nightly_winners.htm

had this prior to the announcement! I was genuinely shocked to see it - I thought that this was done in real time, and it's obviously on a minute or two delay!

honeychile 09-18-2004 11:20 PM

Okay, Dierdre Downs went to Samford University, and will start at the University of Alabama's School of Medicine.

Does Samford have GLOs?

nhpgator 09-18-2004 11:31 PM

yes!

honeychile 09-18-2004 11:32 PM

Answering my own question: yes!


Listed here:

Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Kappa Alpha
Alpha Omicron Pi
Chi Omega
Phi Mu
Zeta Tau Alpha

velouria 09-18-2004 11:36 PM

yeah, I've been looking and I've found NOTHING. =(

honeychile 09-18-2004 11:43 PM

I can't believe I'm checking each of these websites listed! :rolleyes:

I actually have heard of someone named Dierdre Downs, but I can't place where! This is making me crazy!

The ADPi & AOII sites (at Samford) don't look promising, thus far...

velouria 09-18-2004 11:44 PM

yeah,, we're nuts. and I shouldn't even be up still.

ASUADPi 09-19-2004 12:16 AM

Congrats to Alabama.

The pageant is still going on here on the west coast but I'm exhausted with a sinus headache so I cheated to find out who won so I could go to bed.


Well if she is greek, I'd LOVE for her to be an ADPi, since I'm partial to my own sorority ;). But if we find out she is Greek, honestly it wouldn't matter, cause she's just greek. LOL.

mmcat 09-19-2004 07:55 AM

her vocal talent blew louisiana's dance away.
it wasn't even close.

whoa whoa whoa whoa....Veena!?!!? No F'in way, I just saw her the other day! ! I went to HS with this chick! i was realy good friends with her HS boyfriend at the time. actaully i think they are together still? man, if i would have known she was gonna be in it, i would have gotten together with the old crew and gotten sloshed!

and i had no idea she was in a sorority!

hah! i had no idea she was goin for Miss Amerca. I knew she was miss Orange county a few years ago.

this is awesome.

DeltAlum 09-19-2004 01:05 PM

We were at the theatre and missed the show. Was Miss Colorado in the hunt? She went to High School with two of our kids.

ZTAMich 09-19-2004 08:06 PM

There was a lot of excitement last night in Atlantic City. It was great to be at the pageant and even funner! to be with people from Alabama :)

alphagamgirlie 01-08-2005 05:59 PM

I came across this thread after looking at AL stuff, Yep this is old I know, but Miss Alabama Deidre Downs didn't rush at Samford. She's an AXO from Zeta Lambda chapter at UVA.
