Florida Pikes don't say Frat

A great Pike by the name of Pete W. (UF) once said "Don't call my fraternity a frat. Would you call your country a count?" We don't let our pledges say frat in reference to Pike, and that carries on through their membership. To this day, if someone asks me about my frat I let them know I am in a fraternity not a frat.

-once a pike always a pike

I see you're new here. Welcome to Greek Chat.

Let me suggest that you read around a while. You'll find quite a few posts on why this analogy is considered by many to be stupid and lame, not to mention offensive. This post and this one (by yours truly) are good places to start.
