In 1973, Sigma Chi held its Grand Chapter in Toronto. Queen Elizabeth was staying at the same hotel while making a visit to the country.
At one point she was walking through the lobby that was also crowded with Sigs. The fraternity brothers spontaneously broke out with the “Sweetheart of Sigma Chi” song. The Queen stopped, listened, and acknowledged them.
I’m sure she didn’t fully understand their actions at the time, but I hoped an advisor explained its sentiment to her later.
