Probably my lacrosse initiations. Just as well, really, because at one point, I was on a leash, dressed as a baby, with a guy dressed a catholic priest walking me (there was a group of us... half (the freshers) dressed as babies, the other half (old boys) dressed as paedophiles)

We walked past Canterbury cathedral dressed like that, and through the highstreet... with many-a family out and about.

Just as well that I was in costume... as all the clothes I was wearing that night ended up encrusted in vomit.

At the start of the night, we had to do a little "warm up exercise", where they placed a pint of water at the top of a hill, a pint of soda water down the bottom, and then a pint of beer (mixed with baby food) back at the top of the hill. We had to down the pint of water, sprint down the hill, down the soda water, sprint back up, and down the beer/baby food mix. The idea being that your stomach holds roughly 3 pints, and so you're likely to vomit once you get to that level. Combine that with the gassiness of soda water, and the disgusting-ness of the beer/baby food (the beer was really cheap 24p a can stuff, too), and, yeah... pretty much all the freshers were throwing up within the first 15 minutes of the initation.

We played a modified version of ring of fire. With one of the cards being "shot of filth"... which I drew 3 times. Filth being a drink that two of the guys mixed - including a mix of various spirits, milk, tuna, mayonnaise, goats cheese, and a broken up cigarette... which was left to "ferment" by a radiator for a couple weeks.

I also drew the "d-pole" card (which I now have up on my wall)... which basically meant that they took a lacrosse d-pole, removed the head, put one end in my mouth, and poured various drinks down the other... and because it was constant, you don't get any kind of break until they think it's time. I actually ended up having to take my mouth away, vomit (with the drink just pouring over me), and then carry on drinking.

Also, we were drinking by International Drinking Rules. And... have you ever tried a waterfall with about 30 people? Guaranteed to get you fucked.

So that's what Uni's like?

I think I'l apply for St Andrews or something, a bit more peaceful!
