Matt and Tim
My son Tim is 23 years old, a college graduate, has a great job. He went to school at Purdue, I was so proud and still am. He graduated last summer. While in school he was a member of a Frat or fraternity as I am correct by Tim. John Kennedy even belonged to a chapter of this fraternity. But with all groups and being in college and being male they have their habits, rituals and gatherings. He has kept some of the friends from this time along with friends he had in high school My son has moved to a nearby town from here which happens to be a college town. Put it this way his roommate and he have a bar that would put most clubs to shame. He likes the whole "group" attitude and regularly goes out with his friends or has parties.
One of his hangouts had a contest last weekend. It was put on by Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. My understanding was that you got tickets to drink beer and who had the most won a bike. Imagine my horror and shock when I saw this bike on my son's away message~I had images of my son drinking bottles and bottles of beer, getting alcohol poisoning, being carried to the emergency room puking, and passed out.
Silly mom! It was a raffle, and the more tickets you had the better the chance of winning! Which meant the more you had gave you a better chance to win, not the MOST you had won.
God I am getting to old for this!
Plus now my kid will get some exercise, now he can ride his bike to the bar!
PS: I have taught my kids to never, ever drink and drive!
