There's definitely not enough information there to form an opinion either way. It was a terribly unfortunate freak situation, but that doesn't mean Phi Gamma Delta didn't owe some sort of duty which they breached. Premises liability cases (which I'm guessing this is) have a pretty low threshold for liability when you invite folks onto your property.
