Hey!!!! Don't be making fun of the Malpractice and Black Bag Ball!!!!! I was the one selling the tickets and I (w/ 2 other people) organize the Black bag ball.
So needless to say, I was there on Friday. I do NOT dance...and I did not go with a date. Probably 50% or more did not have dates. I had a good time. Malpractice ball is what you make it. Either everyone sticks to their own social circles or you introduce yourself to some people. Chatted with a bunch of dental and law students. Even had a few rounds of flip cup going on - which is kinda odd looking when everyone's in suits and dresses. Even conived a law student and his friend to buy me a couple drinks at the bar afterwards. Good times. Was very tired for the path review the next morning. All in good fun. And after the test, I can honestly say that I probably would not have done better if I would've stayed home at studied that night instead.
And Black bag ball is going to be AWESOME!!!!!! Cuz I said so. Most likely at the newly renovated Wyndham (we're working out a contract right now). A little dressier than Malpractice (well for the girls). Like prom, but not as cheesy. Yummy sit down catered meal is the best part.
Marc, I was at my high school's homecoming game last week. They lost. 🙁 We were pretty decent at football in the 90's, but it's been downhill every since. I was there cuz my brother, who's a freshmen at Madison, needed a ride home. He was the homecoming king last year and had to give up his crown. My mom tried to get me to go to the coronation after the game. I politely declined.
At least our mascot is the Blackhawk. For now. Until the protests pick up. Actually we've avoided most of that. And 2 other schools in our conference have indian names as well.
