It is not traditional for parents to attend bid day at Kentucky. Most chapters have a parents weekend later in the fall, coinciding with a home football game.
Back in the day, bid day activities consisted of taking a million pictures, running the new members through the pledging ceremony (depending on the chapter, this could take HOURS), eating dinner with your new sisters, and then going out to alcohol-fueled fraternity rush parties to show off your new pledges.
I guess some of this has changed. Do chapters now rent out moon bouncers or skating rinks like they do down here in GA?
The only parents I ever saw at any bid day were legacy moms.
