Back in the day, Greek life just paying for friends.

Seems like nothing has changed.

Nice try Mr. Tate

I ain’t sayin’ shite

I was hot boxed. Told that my family would be killed if I didn't pledge.

1985 broke arse me had a lot of fun drinking and eating for free for a few days at the pre-rush open houses. Well, I did up until the time it was made clear that I was a poor. On the upside, I almost learned the greek alphabet.

And that same week the story of a rather awkward but innocuous 3 minute conversation with an Omega about the possibility of me rushing Omega (I had no idea at the time they were an all black frat) has thirty years later grown to such epic proportions that I will argue for hours with a straight face with my now grown daughters that I was the first white Omega in LSU history. They ADORED it when I took a can of gold spray paint to an old set of army boots and told them I was getting ready for a "reunion".
