You all are giving these guys too little credit. I am pretty sure they knew exactly what they were doing.

Eh. The people who were actually there seem to think otherwise and to be giving them the benefit of the doubt -- at least they are quoted doing so. Absent anything indicating the contrary, I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, too.

This isn't true at all. I go to Alabama and was around when this actually happened. The aka house is located on soroity row and the ka's come down soroity row to pick up their dates who stand in front of their respective houses. The parade was so big this year that they couldn't move their trucks. This is an issue that the aka's blew WAY out of proportion. Nothing was said, it was just people at the wrong place and the wrong time.

I was with you until you got to the bit about the AKAs blowing it "WAY out of proportion."

Another reminder about how far we have gotten in the Deep South of where I stand and what my organization means to people in this day and age...

More things change, the more they stay the same? IDK?

OR

Without struggle, there's no progress?

they make a huge deal out of nothing. simply put the ka's picked up their dates on soroity row which is where the aka's house is. they got backed up in traffic and now the aka's are trying to make somthing out of nothing.

Yes, they were picking up their dates. I'm with MC - the story as reported doesn't indicate any ill-will on the part of the KAs. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
