That may be but keep in mind that in Cancun, Mexico most entertainment is old. That's partly why everything is so much cheaper there. Recent grads don't care. They just want to drink and revert back to the old saying, "When in Rome do as the Romans".

Okay, I've read people reference being sick afterwards because of the cold and it just being a gross venture when you factor in the stickiness, sweat, people being drunk, half nakedness, etc.
However, NO ONE has specifically mentioned how foam parties are perfect opportunities to exchange bacterial infections and communicable diseases with friends and strangers. When foam parties first became big a few years ago, some doctors spoke out against them and recommended people pass on this unnecessary and disgusting form of "fun."
It's even grosser than beer pong and bobbing for apples (maybe it's a tie). Where do idiots get these gross ideas for "fun" from?

Our Beta chapter has kinda made a tradition out of throwing a foam party every spring. There are a variety of rental companies that will ship you the machine, you're responsible for setup and damages, then you ship it back to them. We rented two machines, shipping and return included for a little under 800 dollars. There are tons of rental companies, just search google. As far as the whole slippery foam part, we had a drunk girl crack her head on the concrete where the party was. The next year we decided to look into wet foam alternatives and found out that they sell "non-slip" foam, which looks and feels exactly like wet foam, only it isn't soapy and people don't slip and fall, well not as often...

At my alma mater, SigEp threw a couple of those foam parties it was always the first party of the new school year. I think it was only for about 4 years I was there. I never went to one b/c they would have the foam party outside in a grassy field and it was pretty muddy and it just sounded really nasty to me (mud + foam). Then I guess they realized that wasn't cool anymore I think last year they started doing Highlighter parties, at least now it's inside and just a bunch of highlighters lol

We had one at Beta Sigma Psi this summer... they're really fun i think but you have to have the right stuff like... foam that doesnt transmit stds... we had it in a medium sized room because a big room would get gross fast because the foam would start to sink and a small room would be creepy because you are all foamy and touching everyone *gross* there are some people I don't want to touch when I'm all foamy =D So i would be aware of the space you do it in...

^^^ That's too complex and gross. The time you waste on STD-less foam and all that can be used finding more exciting events to sponsor.

Foam parties stopped being cool as quick as they started.
There's one chapter at my school that does foam parties every year and that's "their thing".

A take on the foam party that a local fraternity was a beach party - in the middle of winter. The entire main floor was covered with sand - yes sand, they cranked the heat and everyone was in their bathing suits. I don't know how they got rid of the sand though...
