Honey-do's are so great! But, I cannot imagine dragging my future HD to Boule or Regional Conference.

I know! This was my first Regional and I had so much fun with my 1800 sorors in attendance... I can't imagine having an ol' clunky HD weighing me down!

Originally posted by Attractive#7 Some people are just dumb though. I took my little cousins to my high school with me about 2 yrs ago. (I was in college, but I came to visit a teacher.) They had on shirts that said MY MOM is an AKA or Future AKA shirts and this girl was like... "Oh My Gosh. They AKA's???" She was all amazed...I was like yeah they sure are. They pledged at daycare.

I was in AlphaBets when I was in middle school (kind of like charm school for 12-14 year olds?) and I remember wearing my t-shirt to school one day, and my teacher, who's a soror, stopped me in the hallway and very seriously told me that I was NOT supposed to have that shirt on. Looking back, I realize that didn't make any sense at all, because it wasn't even an AKA shirt per se, but at the time I was so scared! All I could do was stand in the hallway and say.. well, my mom is an AKA! And she said, oh, ok... you can wear it then!

Well, I had a similar situation happen to me about three months ago. I was at a Blacks Arts Festival here in Tampa near the University of South Florida. I saw a MAN (about 25 years old) with MY LETTERS on!! He had on a Blue Jersey with with white Z Phi B letters on it!! At first I tried to approach him nicely about the shirt. Then it got ugly as he REFUSED to take it off even after I offered to buy it from him. He wanted me to pay him $200 to take off the shirt!! YEAH RIGHT!! Anyhow, There was security around and not much I could do. HOWEVER, I did manage to take a very clear full length picture of him with my camera phone! I posetd that picture up EVERYWHERE on EVERY GREEK WEBSITE!!! I also informed Sorors and frat in the area as well. (I am new to the area). His day is coming!!

Sidenote: After thorough research I came to find out that he does this on purpose to try to get money (ex" me offering to buy his shit). He does this on PURPOSE! He just doesn't know. That he has a beatdown waiting for him when he least expects it!

Also, my fiance' is my frat. I would NEVER where his 'nelia. Why? I have my own.

This happened to my fraternity brother who went into Popeye's and noticed a man wearing a t-shirt for a D9 sorority...

So, are we just talking jersey's here? I mean as far as someone wearing a social shirt or maybe a sticker, that's fine with me, I think of it as promotion for my sorority. But if they're wearing a jersey or the shirts with sewn on letters, that's just crossing the line!

I was referring to anything that has your orgs letters on it. I know for Zeta only members can wear our letters.

You know, its always amazed me when I have seen white frat members wear a shirt or what not with a white sorority's letters on it, and vice versa.

So is that viewed as okay?

I think it depends on the org. one of my sisters was the Sigma Chi sweetheart, and she would wear his letters (actual stitched letters on a sweat shirt) all the time, and no one ever said anything- people made a bigger deal about double lettering!

It is ok to wear screen print though. We wear AXO- XYZ mixer/homecoming/etc shirts all the time. I have Sigma Chi derby days shirts that have the letters on it, a phi tau mixer shirt and a phi kappa sigma homecoming shirt.
