What I find odd is the variation from school to school. My step-dad was the pres of TKE at Georgia, and went to their house at LSU when he went to a game. He said he told them that they sucked, were small, and needed to recruit better guys and fix up their house. They were the biggest fraternity at UGA when he was there, and he didn't even want to hang out at the house at LSU. Just left and went tailgating after 20 minutes

Apparently they usually waited until a week or two before the next semester, but there was pressure form nationals to have us initiated by a certain date.

Worst I had ever heard of was a guy who went the whole semester and had a death in the family during hell week, so he had to miss it. Didn't get initiated and had to wait another semester as a pledge while all his pledge brothers were active. Didn't know the guy well. Don't think actually got screwed with that bad as a pledge over the next semester, but didn't have "access" to the things actives did.

This is very common. My dad was a TKE at Louisiana Tech and they were the biggest and best fraternity there at the time. Terry Bradshaw was a member when my dad was there.

The Deke stories were always the best.
-They all had to sleep with the house mom
-Throwing pledges off the roof
-Pledges disappearing

Any conversation involving frats at LSU always at one point always has "I heard the dekes made their pledges (insert completely insane made up story).


When my dad was in college, he was a pledge at that frat that later burned to the ground. At that time, the Dekes had a goat and the rumor was that their pledges had to all have sex with the goat.

Like I said I was a spring pledge and one of my pledge brothers was pledging again because he did not make his grades and could not be initiated. He did that shite all over again and was treated just the same as the rest of us

I always felt a little sorry for him. He was a pledge for a full year.....

This is a common myth! Definitely not true. I was not a Deke, but as a pledge we even had something called "goat night". Trust me, no goats were involved. It was just meant to scare us.

No homosexual or beastieality type shite happens in fraternities, it just does not happen. Would you honestly want to be associated with anyone who actually fricked a goat or jerked off another guy?? Ridiculous rumors.......

Was it actually big brother night? That's what it was for us.

Yeah, the goat thing is a general frat myth. Everyone then perpetuated the rumor that Dekes were crazy enough that they actually did it. Didn't know much about Deke when I went through rush. They absolutely didn't care about rush. They knew who they wanted to give a bid to already, so they would basically let you in the house and no one talked to anyone. There's was a clown smoking cigarettes and food on the table. They'd have their composite pictures and everyone was in coat and tie except one guy dressed as spiderman and the name under it was "Spiderman". Their whole shtick is having everyone think they are crazy enough to do anything.

I was a TKE at SLU back in the 80's... We always threatened to take over the "mistake by the lake" just for fun...

We were just 30min away, and a completely different chapter...

A few of them actually kept a goat in their backyard in LBP. Mother fricker got out and was eating my buddy's bushes one day. We caught him and tied him up to the dog stake thing in the front yard. That bastard had some huge fricking balls

So yes, there is a real live goat, but no hanky panky involved. Just meant to freak pledges out



Like I said, I know a good bit about what went on, and none of it was too bad. They also primarily take legacies, so they have a pretty good idea who they want before hand

I know of a couple DEKEs that have a brand. I know one who had the letters literally carved into his chest.

But to my knowledge it was strictly of their own accord. I know several Dekes that don't have any of that.

The one with the chest carving is going to really really really regret that later in life. It's one thing to have a tattoo, it's another to get branded. It's a whole nother universe to get someone to take a wire hanger and carve out greek letters across your entire chest

Jesus Christ this thread devolved into pure shite quickly.

All you frat stars arguing sound like total tools.

All you gdi's arguing sound like total tools.



Is that something we can all agree on?

Nevermind, looks like it was bad enough he needed to tell you himself.

I've seen it more in other fraternities (not the black ones because damn near all of them do it)

Just saw this on Facebook for the Reveille... EXCLUSIVE: Former Acacia Pledge discusses hazing experience



quote:

During "Hell Week" pledges are not allowed to eat, change clothes, shower or leave the house unless they go to class.

“At one point during the first night, they took us upstairs and said this was the last meal of this week, and it was a tarp laid out with dog food and other rotten food and we were all forced to eat it until it was gone,” he said.

Since "Hell Week" he was bothered by what he went through and decided to quit.

 “We were locked in a room and had to smoke 47 cigarette packs between all of us,” he said. “A few people had to consume so much tobacco or nicotine that they got sick. They probably had nicotine poisoning and had to throw up in the bathroom.”




Sorry if posted already, didn't feel like reading back
