We made the pledges steal a Christmas tree every year. That was about the worst criminal activity, if you disregard the drunk driving and petty vandalism of rival houses. Drinking age was still 18, so that made life easier.

I just don't understand who may have ratted them out...

Back then, like we did, our pledges took it like men, got over it and made themselves stronger...

I guess I don't get the snitch mentality...

You let too many people in to up the dues ($$$) and a gnawing cheese eater slips through the cracks and calls his mom

In my opinion, some pledge’s DKE grandfather called Nationals to bitch about his legacy grandson getting cut before initiations.

Then he started spouting off all the lame arse shite (in Grampaw’s opinion) they were doing to his grandson.

National was taking notes, horrified while gramps thought it all junior league crap that a man is just supposed to take.

Nationals followed up, pulled the charter and told LSU, the ball’s in your court.

So LSU doing this for the public optics, law suit CYA and the message it sends to the Greeks.

End of story.

ETA: In my opinion.

What's up with all of these 23 year olds being the perps here? You're a fifth year senior or later and still hanging out in the DKE house abusing kids? Get a fricking life already.

The Advocate

quote:

Allegations against nine members of LSU's Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity arrested Thursday include ordering pledges to lie face down on a basketball court covered in broken glass while being urinated on.

Pledges had gasoline poured on them
and were forced to submerge themselves in an ice machine wearing nothing but their underwear, according to arrest warrants released Thursday afternoon. Members of the fraternity are also accused of kicking pledges with steel toed boots and attempting to burn them with cigarettes.

The list of alleged horrific offenses resulted in nine arrests Thursday after the DKE national organization — one of the oldest fraternities in the nation — announced the sudden closure of its LSU chapter last month.

One of those guys had a prior drug arrest that stemmed from a shooting at the cottages a couple years back. These aren’t some good ole baws..probably a mix of thugs and drug addicts

Yeah, if there's any truth to that, that shite is pretty fricked up... There's hazing and there's abuse, that's abuse...

Now I know why they were ratted on..

The shite we did was nothing like that.. Holy shite...

Dude in the top middle looks like he's in his 30's...

What's this country coming to if you can't even make people lie on broken glass so you can piss on them?

Those look like a bunch of down on their luck pipeliners instead of fratstars. Except bottom left who looks mentally challenged.

Who are the kids that are agreeing to this? I was in a fraternity at LSU, and I would have told them to get fricked if they tried to do some shite like that to me as a pledge. Furthermore as an active I wouldn't have let someone else try to do that to a pledge. No one else in the fraternity would have either.

There's fun and games and then there's being a sick frick.

They must be extreme pushovers, even for pledges.

I don't give a shite what it's for, you have another thing coming if you think I'm laying in glass or letting you piss on me
