Thumbs down Can a dry event work well?

Okay, so I posted a little thing about this earlier. A event with a dry atmosphere and a well-known DJ. Yeah it worked really well! We had around 1,200 or so people come over. We had two huge dance floors. The DJ thought it was great. Everyone still wonders how we actually pulled out the best party they have ever been to. And all this from a dry house? This proves that dry events can work. One consulation though... he event was full of drunk people. If you are having a dry party you will find two things if it giong good. other Fraternities will hate you that night. We had Tekes cancel their party, Delts party was empty. DU's cancelled. And Sigma Chi tried to break in because they were pissed that girls would come over drink their beer and then come over next door to ours to have a good time. Those damn sigma chi's threw a potato canon out our 3rd story window and had it land on one of our cars. Ya just have to watch out for stupid drunk kids. As for things to serve, we gave out water and popsicles because it was really hot. We bought about 200 water bottles and their were 3 left the next day. 400 popsicles, I didn't even get one!The party was amazing and dry parties can work but only if you get a good attraction. If anyone wants to come, we are having another in the Spring. E-mail me to get details.

First of all that's the biggest load of bull i've ever heard of. Theta Xis at UW don't throw parties that would get Sigma Chis jealous of them, Delts would easily draw way more people that Theta Xis and to top it off the girls refer to them as the "goat boys". There is no way in the world you drew anywhere near 1200 people, which is about a third of the greek system. Now if you were Theta Chis that would be possible, since they throw good parties, but your house is mostly known for their infamous past with goats. If you're goin to have a good dry party throw a dry triad or quad and have the ladies pre-funk at their houses before the party actually starts, it keeps everything clean in the house, you'll draw a lot of people, and you'll have a lot of fun if you get some quality houses.
