Spring pledgeship offers a ton of advantages over that of Fall, none more than the week of Spring Break. Yet, not all fraternities let pledges ditch for a week. If you’re lucky enough to escape the haze-fest of pledgeship,  go gypsy style and give the middle-finger to high-priced hotels. Let HostelBookers be your #13 PCP for the week.

It’s sometimes best to let the media speak, even if their inspirational #29 anti-hazing douchebag commentary makes you sick. We can’t always be supportive of the brotherhood, now can we? Either way, take a quick read over a local newspaper’s definition of “6 Common Myths”. Cheers to high school hazing, let’s teach ‘em young!

No matter how much of a badass you are, there will definitely come a point in pledgeship when you ask yourself… why the fuck am I doing this? Yet, not to worry, this doesn’t rival the trepid days of adolescent childhood when you ponder your sexuality. Don’t tell me the thought never crossed your mind…? Either way, your hardest [...]

Every once in a while the Brotherhood runs across a video worth sharing. In most cases, society’s taboo practices usually create a gold-mine of underground content. Yet, there isn’t too much evidence out there. You be the judge whether or not the video is real or staged. Either way, it’s a quality representation of the [...]

The life of a pledge is full of ups-and-downs: a rollercoaster, if you will. With orientation, pledge socials, hell week, and so much more, it’s tough to put your finger on the highest-highs or the lowest-lows. In the Fall, one day reigns supreme: Game Day. While everyone wishes they were in the SEC, football is [...]

While #1 Animal House inspired colleges everywhere to achieve the most prestigious Greek-life possible, it also laid the framework for the shitty realities of life: #29 Anti-Hazing Douchebags. Society looks down upon fraternities just as America looks down upon Marijuana. When it comes to hazing, no fraternity can be legitimized unless it crosses paths with [...]

Society is extremely gracious in their acceptance of college as a tradition among youths. Yet, college will never settle. Hence, summer session. The greatest 4+ years of your life have not and will not be boxed into two semesters. When Spring comes to an end, you have one hell of a choice to make. Will [...]

It’s time to be superficial. When it comes to fraternity life, it’s all about the frat castle. If you’re not familiar with the term, #30 fratty vocabulary can help you out. Fraternity houses all over the country are the spectacles of their respective campuses… well, most of them. From modern masterpieces to southern mansions, fraternity [...]

Ever wonder how the brotherhood stays connected? Just as some of the most simple aspects of every-day life are transformed into greatness through fraternities, even the most basic form of communication is taken to the next level in the brotherhood. With modern technology on the rise, most-notably crack-berries and i-phones, brothers are constantly in touch with one another. In [...]

If you’re somewhat new to the fraternal way of life, there’s nothing more confusing than the Greek alphabet. Strewn across every fraternity and sorority house on campus, along with every other sweatshirt, jacket and rearview car window, Greek letters have and will always remain a fraternity and sorority commonplace. While it doesn’t take a genius [...]

Let’s be honest. In the eye’s of society, frat-guys aren’t the cream of the crop. Hell, if anything, they’re a menace to society. The older generations just don’t understand where we’re coming from. College represents four years to let-loose. It doesn’t mean we’ll be pulling keg-stands and hazing pledges ten years down the line… right? [...]

While every college and university across the country cuts down on the hazing, the media drools over the countless hazing practices that go on in professional sports. By no means are they harking upon it. Hell no, it’s just a joke to society. Why then can’t universities have the same attitude towards fraternal hazing? #6 [...]

It’s truly difficult to not give Charlie credit. Well, it’s the Brotherhood’s turn. Pledging Sucks is about fraternities, hazing, pledgeship and the sort. Where does Charlie fit in? Fucking everywhere. He embodies all that we preach, and never stops winning. Let’s take a look at some of his memorable quotes. Give him credit, he deserves [...]

Hazing? Never heard of it. Who hazes? Well, for those who believe in the ludicrous myth that fraternities and sororities carry on the age-old tradition of hazing, here’s your glorified top-10 list. Make that 14. With the help of Ranker.com, we’ve compiled the top-14 most brutal college hazing rituals. Take it with a grain of [...]

It’s one thing to read about it, it’s a completely different thing to see it. We searched the web for the classiest hazing pics out there. While the Brotherhood represents the great majority of hazing in society, you have to respect the Sisterhood in their leaked pics. Their downfall? Every damn girl loves their camera, [...]

YouTube offers some of the greatest, and some of the worst home videos you’ll ever see. Surprisingly, there is very little video content revolving around pledgeship. I’m not counting the endless bullshit “anti-hazing” news reports. Fucking bro haters. But hey, we don’t worry about those, now do we? How about a fraternity hazing skit that [...]

There’s something oddly appealing about celebrities, whether it be a juicy background story, illicit sex scandal or latest purchase in Beverly Hills. Let’s take a slightly more badass look at our most beloved celebs. Ever wonder if the icons of today knew how to funnel a beer, haze a pledge or sport the greatest Greek [...]

It’s not everyday that we learn a new word or two. I’d be willing to throw down a few bucks to bet you’ve never heard of some of these. Quite possibly the greatest list of vocabulary words I’ve run across. Specializing in fraternities and sororities, these slang words perfectly encompass all that is Greek Life. [...]

Public opinion can truly blow your mind a time or two, and nothing’s better than an online dictionary that defines the greatest terms known to man. Of course Greek-life will make its presence known, and of course these responses are the classiest out there. From fratastic to sorostitute, let’s take a look at how Urban [...]

Ever wonder what your favorite big-screen badasses, superstar athletes, and mega-rich media moguls were like in college? Only the best knew how to party, and if they did just that, you better believe they joined a frat. Will Ferrell over there, he was a classy Delta Tau Delta. Let’s all raise our glasses to the best [...]

Fraternities will continue to be a social tradition as long as society involves adolescents, alcohol, sex & drugs. Sorry for partying. And maybe a few networking opportunities for those who don’t party. We don’t like to talk about them. Anyways, there are always the cases of pledgeship that go haywire. Serious shit can happen, and [...]

The concept of televising fraternity life seems like the ideal form of entertainment. Constant parties, horny sorority girls and pledge hazing would make for quality television, especially on MTV. Well, history proves otherwise (much to my dismay). To prove just how badly pledging sucks, lets take a trip back to February 2003, the original air [...]

Hazing? Never heard of it. Fraternities these days shower their pledges with presents and dandelions. It’s very cute to say the least. But hey, don’t take my word for it. Wikipedia tells all: hazing is a term used to describe various rituals and other activities involving harassment, abuse or humiliation as a way of initiating [...]

As a pledge, there are a solid number of sounds that will make you shit your pants. Take for instance, the sound of shattered glass, heavy footsteps and drunken brothers laughing. The combination of the three might just result in the pissing of your pants. Absolute silence can have the same impact. In the frat, [...]

The breeding ground for alcoholics, drug addicts and wicked hazing can all be attributed to the greatest four-year vacation of your life: COLLEGE. If you think that’s a bad thing, go fuck yourself. Let’s face it, when you walk into the real world in a few years, life’s going to blow. Whoever invented the concept [...]

The Asshole of The Brotherhood You Know You’re A Pledge When… Rush

Some people love him, some people want to punch him. When he got his shit rocked against Kentucky last year, there were two mindsets throughout the country. The Gator Nation almost fainted, while the rest of the SEC and countless others were praising the Lord for such a gracious occurance. Tim Tebow lying motionless on [...]

10 ) You look like a tool. Your pledge attire resembles a mix of Steve Urkel and The OC. 9 ) Fear of the frat house replaces and overrides the fear of failing out of college. 8 ) While your GPA plummets, becoming a true “frat-star” replaces any college goal previously established.

As a pledge, knowing what’s going to happen next allows you to mentally, and sometimes physically, prepare for the shit to come. Well fuck– where’s the fun in that? It’s like knowing you’re about to get punched in the face. The knowledge of the future fucks with your mind just as much as the actual [...]

I think we can all relate to one historical past-time that fully encompasses all that is Greek-life: Animal House. Nothing sparks a national boner more than a few alcoholic frat boys with an overdose of testosterone and unlimited kegs to tap.  Although this epic film is a few years old (debuted in 1978), we can [...]
