Oh man- good thread.

I was pretty blunt during rush back in the day. One guy showed up to a party in a knit vest and I told him he needed to go home, change and come back. He got an attitude about it, so I just told him to leave for good- and he did.

But it is really kind of lame to just tell some kid he sucks. It is a lot more fun to really draw it out and teach him a lesson.

My favorite tactic with a substandard rushee was to get him to start talking about everywhere else he was rushing. Often such rushees would take the bait and talk about the other houses they liked- and the higher their favorite was above their real chances, the better.

And then once we had this info, we would tell the guy we got a call from someone at that house and that he needed to go over there right away and hang out since he had a real shot.

You would not believe how often guys fell for this.

It does not really work so well during summer rush, but at Roundup or other times when all of the houses are having rush events- it is lots of fun.
