Wow, Tyler belongs to Animal House!

Actually, Animal House was filmed in a Sigma Nu house at the University of Oregon.

Rumor has it they wanted to film it at UGA in Athens, but the school was trying to fight the "party school" image

Man, I hope the Sigma Nu house was the classy one in the film?

Found this on IMDB.com

The interior scenes of the Delta house were filmed in a Sigma Nu fraternity. The exterior of the Delta house was a dilapidated house from the 1800's that was torn down in the early 90's. The sorority house's exterior is the real exterior of the Sigma Nu house that was used for the interior scenes.

OK back to the topic:  :*))


I worked for 4 years with a tour operating company that specialized in High School Senior Trips and College Spring Break. If I had to choose one destination it would definately be Puerto Vaillarta! I loved the fact that you looked to the right and there was the beach, you looked to the left and there were the mountains. Some of the prettiest country I have ever seen, and the people! I can't say enough about the locals, they are so eager to please! We had a cab driver chase us down because one of the girls left her purse in the cab.

Puerto Vallarta is a sweet place!  I went there for a bachelor party so I can't remember much about it, but I know it was really fun!

Sr. Year, we all went to Palm Springs, CA for spring break. That was the year after the riots in PS (ya know, old ladies beatin' the crap out of Mildred when she shouted "bingo" before her card was all blacked out....) NOT!

Got a T-Shirt that said "Come on Vacation, Leave on Probation, PALM SPRINGS 1988". It had a b&w pic of cops in riot gear. CLASSIC. Wish I still had it.

The whole week was a drunken mess. Met some dudes from Az. State and partied with them all week. Night clubs, pool parties with lay-days, golf, and sun. All in all, a good trip.
Maybe I'll go this year. Hey, do you think a 40 year old sly bald guy would fit in?
