poltr125 years ago this month, I was on a road trip to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. The Delta Chi chapter there had invited other chapters to help set the record for the world's largest Twister game. So we loaded up the car and left Buffalo and drove all night. We stopped near Loveland, OH to shower at eat at Rocky's parents' house. Then it was on to I-275 west to US 27 north to Oxford.
We arrived just in time, in front of Millett Hall. The game had just begun. None of us had time to stretch out, so most of us got out in the first round. I think Tom lasted until the 2nd round.
After the game, we hung out at the Delta Chi house. They were serving Hudepohl Gold. Nasty stuff. I dozed off in one of the bedrooms. Soon, I heard a battle cry: "The Betas are stealing our kegs!" Another fraternity was trying to steal the empty kegs so they would collect the deposit. So we all woke up and went after them. We got them back.
We stayed the night and left for Buffalo on Sunday morning.
Since then, I've made a few trips to the Miami University campus. Oxford is definitely a college town. And the campus is pretty.
