The guys I was visiting were throwing some frozen burgers on the Weber and watching the fraternity across the street in awe (maybe it was shock AND awe).
I'd love to find out what it is that's kept the pig roasters alumni coming back each year...if I get the chance I'll share the info here.

In my experience, it seems like what keeps alumni coming back usually has to do with strong
traditions.
And as part of that, you
want to come back because it is a big deal to do so. With the pig roast group, I would venture to guess they do something like this ever year at homecoming. And with tents and bands, it's a fun event. So what's not to like?
Frankly, it's something I know
I would like to attend.
