quote:

Mad Men’ star Jon Hamm took part in a violent initiation ceremony, or hazing, at the University of Texas which led to criminal charges, court records have shown.

The actor had not previously been linked publicly to a lawsuit filed by a member of a fraternity who claimed he was severely beaten, dragged by a hammer and had his trousers set alight.

The 1991 lawsuit said Hamm participated “till the very end”.

Criminal records show the now 44-year-old was charged with hazing and received deferred adjudication, which under Texas law means he had to successfully complete probation but was never convicted.

So?

Almost every Frat haze, worst is the traditional black fraternities... They don't play.

If you were ever curious how Mad Men was so authentic....

Next they'll tell us John Slattery has been womanizing and sleeping with OT 10s since he was a wee lad.

Hazing is fun and builds character. Now bring me a late plate and case of beer pledge!

Looks like the victim couldn't take a hint.

I found it funny that him and John Slattery (Lincoln) actually turned into real-life ad men.

It's really amazing how often I look at a project around the house and wistfully remember those days of free labor and problem solving. They were inefficient and kind of pathetic, but it was a nice option to have.
