Hey! That guy's naked!

When I was in high school, I always wondered what college life was really like. Are the girls really that hot, are the football games really that interesting, and is it anything like it is in the movies?

Fortunately, yes! College is everything I could have hoped for and more. You can study all day and party all night if you choose to and it is by far one of the most fun experiences of my life. It is something that I am sure I will have a connection with for the rest of my life.

This past weekend has been one my most enjoyable yet. It all starts Friday evening when I was calling around to see if anyone was going to do anything that night when I got a call from my friend Kyle. My friend Kris and I headed towards the party and we got ready for a fun and long night.





At the party we quickly find Kyle and find him playing asshole, we decide to join in but, the game had winded down and was over soon. We went outside to the patio where everyone was at and join in the festivities, free beer, free alcohol and you can never go wrong (most of the time). So after drinking some “Blue” and talking about crew (it was a crew party and I used to row) much to Kris’ annoyance (Kris never rowed). We decided to play some beer pong. First up were Kyle and his friend and when I tried to grab the other side of the table, two douchbags grabbed me and told me to wait for my own good. I didn’t want to start anything since I didn’t really know anybody and I honestly didn’t care so I just stood there and watched. One of them kept claiming he had won the last eleven games of beer pong he had played and told him I would bet two dollars he would lose, that’s right you heard me, two whole dollars! He agreed and I was left wondering what a bad bet I had made.






Well, the beer pong game was pretty exciting, even more so with the bet having been placed. Kyle and his friend took the lead and held it to last three cups, when the douchbags looked like they were going to pull off a comeback. Down two cups to one douchbags winning and me wondering why I had bet my two dollars. In one round Kyle’s friend sunk a ball and all of a sudden it was a tie game, douchbags missed and then Kyle sunk the final ball. Everyone watching cheered, and the douchbags watched as I took their money and showed it off in their face. Now I had money to go to Taco Bell.

With that we went outside to welcome are friends that we called up and went back inside to play some pong. I finally got to play and with my partner we start to eliminate the cups of our opponents. The unstoppable force that we were, we continued until my partner had to leave. I played another game but, it just wasn’t the same and so I quit and got ready to leave. Kris and I left soon after and went home to look forward to the game the next day.

The next day I woke up at 12:00, a little tired and bewildered but, knew the game was in just a couple of hours. I got dressed, checked my computer and got something to eat. An hour later, I called my friends and headed over to the Suwannee room. Having met up at the Suwannee room, we headed over to the game and watched as the Seminoles finally decided to play a game and finally did what they were supposed to do. Touchdown after touchdown, we celebrated and then left to hang out in our friends dorm and watched deal or no deal for about two to three hours and then decided to watch “road trip” a college movie of course. We laughed at people’s mistakes on deal or no deal and criticized the inaccuracies of “Road Trip” because if anyone knows from experience it’s a group of college freshman.






After the movie and never ending deal or no deal marathon we decide to play football even though it was one in the morning. On the way to get the football at my other friend’s dorm I got a call from my other friend Ryan inviting me to play some pong at his place, I told him I would go even though I had no plans to do so and we continued on our way to play football. We play football with some guys we find there and have a pretty good game.

While playing football there were people in the fountain and campus police came and told them to get out. They did and one of the guys we were playing with told me that same cop had just given him a ticket for who knows what. After campus police left the people who were in the fountain go back in and the policeman who they thought had left came storming back, apparently they were just getting some clothes out and we went back to playing our game. After a minute or two the cop noticed that the guy who is playing with us put a beer can by the street lamp. He quickly called us over and asked whose it was. When questioning the guy who confessed and us looking on very interested and our game permanently postponed. The kid pointed towards the fountain and yelled “Hey, that guy’s naked!” we turned around to look and sure enough on the other side of the fountain was some kid naked getting ready to get into the fountain. The kid just stood there streching even when he saw the cop. The cop who was holding the can of beer looked stunned. He just stood there for a second and then started marching over dropping the can of beer. I looked towards the guy who yelled the kid was naked and he was as stunned as the cop. I quickly told him to get out of here and I turned around to laugh with my friends, by the time I turned around I saw the kid halfway down the street running barefoot carrying his shirt. We laughed and noticed the kid who had gotten the ticket form before had bolted as well. The kids who had first gotten in trouble also took the opportunity to get away. We still stood there and looked on as the cop arrested the “naked guy” and saw two more cops come for backup. We saw the first cop tell them the same story I’m telling you and we couldn’t help but notice the similarities between this and almost any episode of Reno 911.

We laughed until the cops took the kid away and we stood there still laughing at what had just happened. After that I decided to go home having been wiped out from a very long but, fun and exciting weekend. I knew right after that, that my experience at college would be a fun and exciting one that I wouldn’t forget for the rest of my life.
