2004.1 -- The Protest

During the second dance at Loudonville 2004 Session 1, American Pie was cut short twice. As this wasn't the first time during that dance a canon song had been cut short (End of the World), the CTYers all over the dance floor began sitting down in protest, following the example of Tim Mullen and shouted and the RA's running the sound equipment. Soon, the site director came in and yelled at everyone to be quiet, which they did, although they still refused to stand. The RA in charge then played Time Warp, resulting in everyone returning to their feet to dance and lights out being pushed back about 10 minutes due to the lengthened dance. After Time Warp, they played American Pie for a third and, finally, successful time.

Mike Gonan later reported that it was a software glitch in "Windows Media Player," even though the DJ used iTunes. Even after the fact had been proven otherwise, he absolutely insisted.

EDIT: The way I remember it was that yes, End of the World was previously cut short but then Stairway was cut short and American Pie started to be played, and everyone sat down in protest but eventually got up because it was American Pie then Cindy Ragland the site director agreed to play Stairway again and extend lights out.

2005.1 -- The "Soccer" Game From Hell

At the first session at Siena College 2005, there was a deadly "Soccer" game. At one field at sienna there were people who played serious soccer. At the main field there were people who didnt always play soccer, but whatever they played, they just joked around, but it was fun. One day, the serious soccer players challanged the non-serious ones. Early in the game, one of the non-serious players kicked the ball into one of the serious player's shins, it bounced off and back into the non-serious player's foot and flew into the serious player's face. It broke his glasses and sent glass into his forehead. He got sent to the Hospital but the game went on. THe serious players were discourage because, often, when one of the non-serious players took a shot at goal, and missed, many of the other players like Kuni, Max, John, Tom, or Will, went around the whole field shouting GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAL. In the last ten minutes before it was time to go, a serious player, Jen, had the ball. She was bringing it up toward the non-serious player's goal when a large, tall, non-serious player named Isaiah clotheslined her. She immeadiately fell to the ground and didn't get up. She was sent to the hospital and later we learned that she had a concussion. The ironic thing about this game was that after this game, we were banned from playing......football.

2005.1 -- Dan the Man Lives On

During LOU-1-05, Dan "the Man" started wearing his sunglasses 24-7, inside and outside, class times, meal times, showers, to bed, everywhere. They became a mark of his coolness and general kickassitude, never leaving his face to the point that he got a glasses tan, even though he didn't need to wear glasses. Being a nevermore in 06, at the end of his Passionfruit speech, Dan the Man passed on his sunglasses, along with the title of "the Man", to Dan, Alice's little brother. Dan the [Previous/Original/Ex/etc.] Man wears sunglasses no more, instead being marked by his mandolin, copious body hair and sexy beard.

2006.1 -- Fight Club

During LOU-1-06, Dan the [Original] Man brought his copy of Fight Club to let a friend borrow. The book ended up circulating through five or six different people. At the same time, Dan the Man and Jon Webster began an actual fight club, jumping on each other at random points in time and wrestling until one of them was subdued or an RA broke them up. Several of these fights were videotaped for later distribution, because ironically, the first rule of fight club is that you do not talk about fight club.
