This is a all male event an all anyone asks is to show respect and we will show respect to you.

Thank you for your opinion...like I said, no disrespect intended by the "vike" comment, only reason I even said it, and that was the best word I could use to describe it, is because it is somewhat different when you pledge a co-ed chapter and become a viking versus pledging an all male chapter...co-ed means you deal(t) with girls, so one may or may not be more sympathetic to female frat and lb's than someone who pledged all-male, and vice versa. Honestly speaking, some of the nicest and most "attractive" vikes I have ever met were from all-male chapters (great fellowshiping indeed
) So that is why I asked!
Important note!
As everyone cool down and make their way down to ATL, personally, I will be going to GREEKNIC, YIPPEE!!!, just remember, a person's opinion is just that, theirs! Every Viking is not going to snatch a female's letters, every female frat is not going to wreck shop and cause havoc and all Gamma Sigs, Jewels and Phyettes are not going to look at Females with a screw face. Now it is not to say that it can't happen, but don't expect it to happen either! Remember, it is a fellowship and everyone there is going for just that. If everyone knows there role, then I think it should be a peaceful event! Have fun, but if you have to get out of pocket, drink or do what ever, please take off your letters!!!
Then like Eightball said, Bust a ______ Head!
