We never did anything like this, but I think it could be fun, inside-the-group-silliness worthy, just not well suited to how we did bid day on my campus.
I just wanted to pipe up because everyone so far was all like "oh, that's embarrassing and humiliating" and "I might re-think my bid."
I wouldn't have wanted to do that on bid day at the end of rush because at that point I just wanted some comfort and relaxation, but it sounds like it be a funny thing to do at a sisterhood retreat or something.
My experience with bid day is that it had a lot more of a recruitment-best-behavior-vibe more than a wacky-be-silly together vibe. I think pictures, meeting rose sisters, maybe a cook out, and then something low key. For me a pool party would not have been low key because I've never been big on appearing in public in a bathing suit.
