BSD has always been a blast, with the caveat that is
has to be outdoors.
When BSD gets moved indoors you can let the suckage begin. My very first BSD in my first year at U of C it was 25 degrees outside and you partied all day and its great.
The second it goes indoors to the new ball room it sucks. Its something about being able to wander around campus hammered with a bunch of friends/strangers and causing mischief.
Alas, in the working world, Beerios for Breakfast is simply unacceptable.
