OMG, I remember Heaven & Hell! Easy to do with the four brothers who lived just off campus when I was a nibble. And a TURTLE ceremony?!? Outstanding! I shared that experience with Alpha Gamma Mu.
Our pledge classes went by letter, and we did have the occasional theme running through nicknames (Kermit's little was Animal, whose little was Fozzy...). My branch of the family tree was the only one that was a straight line, but we can all tie knots in cherry stems.
