Wow weird. As far as I know we just can't drink with our letters on.

Yeah, like I said, I'm not sure if it's a Phi Mu thing or a school thing. It's probably a school thing and the boys just don't care!

Kind of a highjack: is the rule about drinking with letters a way of avoiding having people stumbling around drunk with their letters on, or is it a hold over from communities in which drinking itself was bad, bad, bad?

Neither: For most GLOs, it's a myth, unless you have chapter bylaws that spesifically state it.
And yes, for those who do, it's ususally to keep people from acting like idiots in letters (although it doesn't stop those who do so sober anyway).

Maybe b/c I was born, raised, went to college, and still live in the Midwest I've never, ever had a problem with drinking beer from a can OR a bottle. I like it from a bottle better b/c IMO it tastes better.
The only excuse for having your beer in a cup is if you got it from a keg. Seriously.
So I guess that makes me tacky  .

Yep. But anymore, the kind of beer I prefer is either draft microbrews (which means a glass) or specialty beers, which I prefer to drink from a glass.
The last time I had beer from a can was Halloween when we played beer pong, and that probably doesn't count because we poured it into the cups to play.
