Sporting shotguns and breaking clays with VCU's SigEp | Survival

This brotherhood experience may not be for everyone but these guys from VA Commonwealth University - SEC had a fun and instructive outing. And they are much better prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse. 

Sporting shotguns and breaking clays with VCU's SigEp | Survival

It appears that our summer intern just can’t let go.
After bringing his brothers (from the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity) up from Virginia Commonwealth University for an afternoon of shotgun lessons, our Mister James Poole filed this report with NRAblog.

Centreville, Virginia – As the fog cleared that morning, blazers and bowties were turned in for shooting vests and 12 gauge shells. The students of Virginia Commonwealth University were on “Fall Break” and the fraternity brothers of Sigma Phi Epsilon (SigEp) took the opportunity to participate in a private Trap Shooting Clinic hosted by NRA Education and Training.

The SigEp brothers started the day with a safety briefing on shotguns and proper Trap Shooting etiquette. The brothers then took positions on the shooting line where they were given 1-on-1 coaching from NRA staff. When everyone was ready, the clays started flying. Cheers roared out as they began breaking target after target, it was obvious they were fast learners.

After two rounds the novice shooters had become pros (even if only in their own minds). Comparing scores and bragging about shots they crushed; you would never believe some of them had never handled a shotgun before.

A bit of SigEp Trivia...

Woody Herman was a popular band leader in the "Big Band Era". He was also a Sig Ep and wrote this piece, which he titled  - what else? - "Sig Ep"

The eight-minute short film “Cowboy Dreams” premieres July 25 in Hollywood at the 13th Annual L.A. Shorts Fest, the largest short film festival in the world. Films selected for this festival also qualify for Academy Award nomination in the “Best Short Film” category. The film’s writer and co-producer, Steve Briscoe ’77, has been on a long journey that included stand-up comedy and film-making, since his graduation from Ohio Wesleyan University.
[...]
“The students and people at Ohio Wesleyan helped change my perspective of life. Everyone had different backgrounds, and it broadened my horizons,” says Briscoe, a psychology major at OWU. “I was struck by the beauty of the campus. And I value the friendships I made at OWU.” He also has fond memories of his time on campus, and various escapades with his frat brothers at Sigma Phi Epsilon.

Michigan Tech Sig Eps Dance and Strip!

Epic Beards
by Elijah Haines

What is the Beard Competition? It can best be described as a mixture of Winter Carnival fever, beards, spandex, enthusiastic dancing and an utter disregard for personal dignity. Last Thursday afternoon, Fisher 135 filled with students, families and out-of-control facial hair. Fraternities, sororities, residence hall communities and student organizations all took part in the furry fun.

Nick Windmuller, the event’s organizer, described the Beard Competition as a collection of “skits without rules. It’s a chance [for students] to show off their facial hair while entertaining everyone.” The competitors have two months to grow the most outrageous facial hair possible and then present a skit to the judges and audience. The skits varied greatly in content. From the poetic “ode to the beard” recited by the Triangle fraternity to the stripping and dancing of the Sigma Phi Epsilon brothers, the Beard Competition had something for everyone. Many pop culture references had the audience cheering for more.

Interpretations of the SNL song, “Jizz in My Pants,” the film “Men in Tights” and Monty Python’s “Lumberjack Song” were some big hits with the crowd. The Air Force ROTC’s “Men in Black” performance and Delta Zeta’s “Dating Game” were also favorites.

Tight clothing seemed to be a popular theme among the skits and never ceased to draw laughs from the spectators. Some particularly revealing dresses worn by the gentlemen performing “The Whorehouse Three” caused an audience member to shout out, “How’d they squeeze them into that?”One of the most memorable jokes in the Beard Competition was presented in Delta Zeta’s skit: “Girls at Tech are like parking spaces. All the good ones are taken and the rest of them are way out there.” Apart from a few shocked and horrified parents, the event went over very well, and the audience laughed as they exited and debated which competitor looked best in their dress, tights or speedo.
