LOL!
That's hilarious that some people from another fraternity would dare to come and talk crap during the Conclave of the largest fraternity... LOL...
That's basically a death wish (not literally LOL )...
Bourbon street was literally swarming with Tekes (especially at night) - hollering back and forth to each other, chanting, etc...
The Hotel (Fairmont) was beautiful - a historical hotel originally built in the 1800's - housed 8 U.S. Presidents - and had that great classical and elegant feel to it... That was literally taken over by TKE...
The setups for legislation, conferences, grand council activity/ritual was really nice...
Great location indeed- a block from Bourbon...
The TKE flags flying all over the area were a sight to see indeed!
It was nice to know that one of the most famous bar/restaurants (the 2 sites) were owned by a Teke! Those handgrenades were killer! You're right, the most potent, yet curiously delicious and inconspicous drink ever!
Another highlight was the WWF Wrestler "MANKIND" marching with us in the TKE Parade down Bourbon Street!
That parade itself was incredible! Mankind was a guest speaker by the way...
Not to mention, New Orleans officially declared the week "TKE WEEK"!
The former Grand Prytanis (Mark Romig) went to school in the area - and the former mayor was a TKE as well...
If you haven't met the legendary "BUCKWHEAT" Perry, he was an absolute crack up! LOL...
Look at the TKE Site - they have a link to the photography company that took the pictures...
I'm on one of them...
We also have tons of video footage (our future Histor had a camcorder) from Bourbon - it was absolutely INSANE...
