1. Pre-Game "The Pre-Game"
Let's be real. If your pre-game the pre-game, you're setting yourself up for one crazy night. You clearly don't care about what actions may result, which is really bad because drinking excessively will lead to a sloppy night.
I would know. Why not just do one pre-game so that you're tipsy enough to socialize and have fun, and not so drunk that you're puking your brains  out?Â
2. Handle Pulls
Handle pulls are a great way to get drunk if you show up an hour after everyone else, but it's not a good idea. Consuming that much alcohol all at once won't end well. To make things worse, people are surrounding you to see how much you can handle. It may feel great hearing people chant your name and count but it's not worth it... sometimes. This brings me to my next point.Â
3. SLAP THE BAG!
I'm not going to lie but this gif reminds me too much of myself. Yup, I'm that guy that walks around with a wine bag and let me tell you, I wake up every morning with very sore arms. Besides that, "slapping the bag" is a college essential, a tradition, a requirement! Sugar, alcohol, and dancing is not a good combination. I'm sure you know what I'm hinting at...
4. Time to Get "Crunk"
We've all seen this person. Once they start "dancing," you know they're on a good one. They have no coordination or rhythm but that doesn't stop them from turning up and feeling the music. As much as this scene makes you cringe, you can't help but laugh out loud and add them on your snapchat story.Â
5. Merry Go ROUND?
More like "Mary goes around." Stripper poles at parties are rare but fun. I always laugh when people run to a pole thinking they have the moves and what it takes to do a little strip tease. I, myself, am guilty of this as well. A few drinks in and I think I'm a part of the cast for "Magic Mike." Sad part is that we all look ridiculous trying to be sexy and seductive, but it makes for a great story later.
6. Drunk Texting
Remember Brad from last year? Well apparently you do, because you seem to text him after a few shots of Prestige. People always text their friends, exes, and maybe even parents when they're drunk. You should just leave your phone at home if you're going to do this. We can save the morning of regret for another occasion!
7. "I swear, I'm not drunk. I'm just tipsy...Okay, I'm drunk"
I hate these type of people. They're so hard headed and swear they're not intoxicated when they are clearly belligerently wasted. If they're not running off into the streets, you're dragging them out of the frat house and into their bed.Â
8. Snapchat
How do you know if you had a great night? Trying to remember it might not be effective, but thank God for Snapchat! If you have to delete snapchats or call your friends to delete theirs, you had an amazing night. The reason we shouldn't snapchat when at frat parties are many but the most prevalent reason is SCREENSHOTS! People will screenshot the heck out of your snap story and post them on IG, Facebook and Twitter. Despite trying to be professional on some social media apps, this can ruin your reputation or make people such as family judge you... TRUST ME!Â
So, as we can clearly see, us college kids do a lot of things that we probably shouldn't. Does this mean that we'll stop doing it? Not at all. Why? Because it's college and college is all about doing things you might regret when you're 45. So, party on and YOLO!Â
