Mizzou Fraternity House Fire Blamed on Bong
http://www.kctv5.com/news/18782435/detail.html
Was Michael Phelps in Columbia yesterday?
In all seriousness, this is pretty major. The fire at the Sigma Chi house started in the same area of a fire that killed a member in 1999.

Wow. How did it go from a "small piece of charcoal left on a windowsill" to a flippin' bong?!?

Wow. I definitely think this is another attempt from the media to make fraternities look bad.

Okay, but why would someone leave a piece of charcoal on a windowsill? Sounds rather suspect to me.

What I suspect they're referring to is a hookah, not a bong which requires flavored tobacco charcoal

Thank you. It was a hookah (not illegal).
A few years ago (1999? 1998? Before they were kicked off campus— they returned 2006 or 2007) a pledge died in a fire in the same house. This could have been so much worse.
