What my fraternity does is gather all the rushees we want to bid for a dinner, and surprise them with their bids their. I was just wondering about other methods of bidding rushees and what ya'll did, and what yall thought about it.

Blanket bidding is not a good thing. It means you don't give a fuck who comes through the door, you'll give them a bid.
