I haven't been around GC as much as I'd like lately. This thread was a joy to read as I always wanted an ending to that thread. Might be all fiction but darn it, I was invested in that one and wanted answers!

Okay, I know I'm late to the fun here . . . but I had to create an account just to comment on this thread! From my user name, you can probably tell I'm from OU. The DG house was renovated in 1989/1990, and I don't recall seeing pink sequin panty hose as a popular fashion item during that era. There were twins from Tulsa in the Kappa house during that time, but they went through rush at the same time and I don't think they were ever in different colleges. BUT there were also twin twirlers who did NOT go through rush at the same time. Their father was an attorney, but they weren't from Tulsa. I think they both ended up at Chi-O after COB.

Welcome SoonerMama and thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

The reason I brought up the twin twirlers is that they weren't really cheerleaders, but maybe a small enough detail to change? The twins who were KKG were both petite and dressed in a more flashy style than was common on campus in the late 80s/early 90s - and BOTH ended up in law school. The ChiO twin twirlers also both went to law school.

Just another data point on the mystery discussion... but it was how the author referred to cheer in her post that set off my very first fiction alarms. A real cheerleader would never have used some of the terms she used.

So, if this was based on a real set of twins, but the author wanted to use cheer instead of twirl for her roman à clef, that would explain why the terminology was wrong...

I'm new to GC and somehow found this thread and then had to read the Pink Sequins one. Y'all have me literally LOLing. I want to know the ending, too! Danggit! I'll never view pink sequins in the same way ever again.

Someone really should fan fiction an ending for that thread. I still want answers, LOL!

There are enough writers on GreekChat to make a competition out of this!

Fascinating logical idea. Why not set up 3 anonymous impartial judges (from the current contributors) to judge said contest; but what should the grand prize be?

Wearing a pair of pink sequin hose, of course! http://www.redriderleglamps.com/a-ch...-size-leg-lamp

YES!

Writers, go for it. I beg of you!

If you can some others, I am in. I love the original overly dramatic writing style!

YES YES YES! I still want to know what the "thing" is. :D

I could be persuaded!
