Shasta Coolergate Is Rocking The University Of Oregon Campus Right Now, And I Believe Lambda Chi Was Set Up

Each year, students at Oregon and Oregon State kick off the summer by taking house boats out on Shasta Lake into the great outdoors of Northern California for some good, clean fun and camping on the shores for back-to-back weekends. OSU gets weekend one, UO gets weekend two, and the tradition is all about becoming one with Mother Nature, as you’ll see in the video below.

Now that’s roughing it out and living off the land. A minimalistic approach to getting back in tune with our planet. Which is why I’m suspicious of the photos some townie posted last night that are currently going viral on Facebook.

You’re telling me there’s people out there who would trash a place near and dear to their hearts, and then proceed to leave clear cut evidence pointing to themselves as the responsible party? I’m not buying it. Check out that cooler. No more than five minutes was spent painting that bad boy. This whole incident stinks of a Greek life setup.

You know who has cocaine references on their $20 Igloos left out in plain sight? A fraternity posing as their rival for the sake of getting them in some serious shit with the university and nationals. It’s so painfully obvious. Snake move by whoever is accountable, but luckily Detective Dan was on the case and saw right through their poorly executed ruse.

    Don’t you idiots have pledges to clean up after you?

    Cleaning up after yourself and respecting the environment. RFM.

      Not sure why the fuck I’m getting lapped but as someone who enjoys fishing, hunting, kayaking, etc., these are the type of people I hate. I’m all for getting fucked up in nature but just clean up after your god damned self.

        Even after they were initiated our pledges and spring pledges (the few if any at all) were still responsible for cleaning up after everything.

        I wouldn’t call initiated brothers pledges but glad we got to the bottom of this

    Danny – I think it’s time to change up your photo. Are you avoiding leg days?

    As someone who was there, let me tell you what went down, they weren’t set up they just trashed it. Our FSL coordinator has hated Lambda for years and wanted them gone, so this gives him an excuse (he has already kicked three separate houses off campus this year). I personally blame Alpha Phi those stuck up bitches trashed it, painted the cooler, and drank all the fucking jungle juice.

    Don’t know anything about what happened but knowing our nationals this chapter is fucked even if ISIS claims responsibility.

    Good luck y’all, ZAX

    Haha a setup? Not at all. They gave some sorority girls paint and a cooler what did they think was going to happen?

    Fuck Lambda Chi and UofO.

    I’m an OSU student and we ALWAYS have people (if you consider pledges people) clean up each island before we leave it for the next one. Sure there’s some trash but not nearly this bad. Shasta is a great fucking experience and a weekend to forget about rivalry and come together as a group of 3,000 Greek life members who just want to party. UofO may have just ruined this weekend for both schools which is bullshit. Fuck the Ducks.

    No one set them up, they’re just idiots.

      Also, we make a point to NEVER wear letters because, you know, common sense. But clearly common sense isn’t a commonplace in Eugene

      I know you’re salty about going to the little brother school in the state, but calm down

        They are also located in a liberal haven, whereas Corvallis is as polar opposite as you can find in the State of Oregon compared to Eugene

      UO can’t even rent out half of the houseboats at the lake and they still manage to shit themselves in the trash management department. I guess Beavers can handle the weekend better even when they have twice as many houseboats booked.

        Still don’t have shit on Davis/Stanford houseboats. Last year UO went same weekend as us and it was pretty obvious who those gophers were.

        Damn that means UO out partied you with half the houseboats because that video looks weak.

        Not at all bud, just means you guys blow at cleaning. Everyone in the state knows how weak UO Shasta is, even some UO students will admit it. When your bars close down for the weekend because all their sound and lighting equipment is loaded on multiple houseboats and when you guys are able to completely book out all marinas before new years, then we’ll talk.

        The only UO related thing on TFM is talking about how you guys trashed the island and can’t hang (leaving tents cause you guys puked). Meanwhile three years running OSU’s shasta vid is featured on TFM and multiple websites.

      Next time Detective Dan solves the mystery of the 9 inch snake in the 8 inch hole. Who’s lying? Which hole was the snake in? Stay tuned to find out
