Shopgirl,
Thanks for your comments. I was hoping someone from Arizona would have something to say. During the pre-fight hype, they showed the Pikes' trophy case with all the intramural trophies in it and said they were intramural champs for like the last 5 years straight or something like that. The shots of the Pike contestant during his pre-fight interview showed him in a nice shirt and tie. The ZBT's looked like the stereotypical slobs and their pre-fight scenes showed a lot of drunk girls and guys hanging on each other at a party mugging it up for the camera.
It was pretty funny to see those guys try to keep up the energy level in the ring...I guess they never thought it would be so physically taxing to fight for THREE MINUTES. Both of them fell down a lot, and no one really got in many really good punches.
But I agree, it didn't do much to improve the general public's opinion of Greeks, but it really didn't do anything to damage things either.
