Greeks on Reality TV!
 

OK,

My friend and I were channel surfing and landed on VH1 last night...

The guy nicknamed "Cheezy" on I Love New York 2 ....
Is an SAE!

We started laughing hilariously when we saw that he had a "Paddy Murphy Week" shirt on with "Sigma Alpha Epsilon" right underneath.

This guy has not been such a great guy on TV ( or at least on the episode I watched)... (It also looked like he was drinking and he did swear while wearing it).

What do you guys think about people wearing letters on Reality TV and the manner in which they act?

I think if they're not YOUR letters, you shouldn't give a rat's ass. The standards of MY NPC may have nothing in common with an IFC/NIC/NPHC group, or heck, even another NPC.

Fraternities usually don't care. I've seen worse from guys wearing letters.

I watched a show last week called " I want to look like a high school cheerleader again" and one of the women wore an AKA t-shirt.

I think another guy from I love NY is part of a fraternity (and not the Omega).

Its "Unsure" (the guy that looks like Romance from last season) and when he was packing it looked like there was a fraternity shirt. (it was ____ ____ Epsilon) lol But i'm not tooo sure. Did anyone else see that?

If it truly is "reality" tv, then letters should be worn. It would behoove the person, and all greeks, if the "reality" star acts in a way that proudly represents the organization when any sort of apparel is worn.

I mean, if I happened to be cast on any reality television show, I would conduct myself as if my (late) grandparents were tuned in.

I'm human, therefore I err, but I pray I'm never compelled to compromise my dignity for a shallow media trend. Except a game show. I know I'm way smarter than a 5th grader.

My frat brother from USC won $175,000 on "Are you smarter than a 5th grader", ZETAPHIBETASIGMA represented in the audience too!

Game shows excluded, the only reality show that I would consider going on is "The Amazing Race" because I think that would be a fantastic experience.

DITTO!

Although I also fear it might bring about the end of my marriage... :p

I'll form a team with you! :D We could be the first team listed this way:

Nittanyalum and MysticCat
Internet Friends

I think Buddha on "I LOVE NEW YORK 2" a Kappa, because he was threw up their sign a couple of times when he was racing Tailor Made on the go kart track!!

Done! It'll make us famous too, I'm sure. I'm looking up where auditions are being held right now...

I am shocked. Shocked I tell you. A fraternity man drinking and swearing in letters. I mean, wow! Who would have thought that would happen on a "reality show".

Sarcasm aside, as AlphaFrog and PM_Mama00 noted - and as far as I know - most NICs/IFCs do not have rules about drinking or swearing in letters.

And if the show is a "reality show", then all types of manner will (should) be shown since that is the reality of life.

Hate to argue with a brother, but I think many of the NICs forbid drinking in letters. Our chapter forbade it in letters, unless it was a party shirt with letters.

yerp...thats MAB from the UNTOUCHABLE Nu Upsilon chapter. One of his prophytes is in my grad chapter now.
