You still haven't explained to me the purpose of doing this instead of going to the gym.
I guess it's just tradition, and we've always had fun doing it, so it was never second guessed. I remember when I was going through initiation myself, and we were out there and a cop drove by, and those with beers (a couple members, we don't allow pledges to drink during initiation) raised them to the cop and the cop just kind of smiled and waved. So I guess at best it completely depends on your perception... and each person's will be different.

But now, of course, we have to change things around. Even though we're not in IFC anymore, we're still following all their rules...
