Reader Email: College of Charleston Has A Rave In The Library To Break The Tension Of Studying For Finals

Reader Email

Hey Barstool Sports,

My name's Michael Huberman and I'm a student at the College of Charleston in Charleston, SC. I'm from Newton though, so I hit up the site every day and I love it. Y'all do a great job. So, as I'm writing this I'm supposed to be studying for a final as it's exam period. Last night, to try ease the stress of the students, we had a 15 minute rave in the main lobby ofour library . I'm sending you the link to the video. You gotta understand this was while everyone was studying for exams and all of a sudden it was like a rave in Montreal. The video is like 2 and change long but it's worth it, I think there were close to 600 people in the middle, dry humping and moshing. I don't know maybe you'd put it on the rate this video for cool/lame posty'all do. Anyways watch the video its pretty tight and keep up the great work, the site's funny as shit.

Happy holidays,
Michael Huberman

 

Man I miss college. I could totally use a rave to break up the monotony of blogging and shipping shirts. Maybe we'll try this in our cafeteria/my kitchen next week. It would be just what the doctor ordered. In any event, are we sure this wasn't really at BC? This seems right up their alley.

PS - Is this an annual thing? It must be right? I mean how else could everybody know about? And am I crazy or was the library actually blasting techno music?

Double PS - I love how the Newton guy says y'all now. Come on dude. Put that shit away.

 

UPDATE: Apparently this is a Southern thing because they did the same exact thing at North Carolina the day before complete with a lame ass song at the end.

what a fuckin loser...just because you go to school in the south doesnt mean u start saying y'all and talking in a southern accent u fuck... grow up

Showtime, Dec 13 2008, 12:11 pm

fucking awesome! definitely would have gotten a not lame vote...use the powers of facebook to get the word out...get someone who works in the library to hijack the speakers and blast sandstorm...break out the glowsticks and the X and let the good times rolllll

Weezy Baby, Dec 13 2008, 12:12 pm

I'm glad they had a little fun dry humping each other because I'm sure their finals raped them the following morning . . . I mean, they go to the College of Charleston right?

Thrillson, Dec 13 2008, 12:18 pm

Looks like the kick-off party to the National Nerd Festival.

bradymancrush, Dec 13 2008, 12:20 pm

Awful joke, just awful. "are we sure this wasn't really at BC? This seems right up their alley." What does that even mean?

YewallJealous, Dec 13 2008, 12:29 pm

You forget to put the rating bar up EP? I would have given this an 8. Only reason it's not getting a 10 is because they forgot to keep rolling so that we can all see how hilarious it was to see this rave get broken up by tear gas and what not.

Section10, Dec 13 2008, 12:30 pm

I gotta be honest, i was impressed

Naked Troopa, Dec 13 2008, 12:35 pm

I didn't think this was a lame thing. I think it's cool but he didn't build it.

elpresidente, Dec 13 2008, 12:42 pm

I just saw where you Eastern boys are getting pounded by some real nasty weather. No power? That sucks boys. I have -10 wind chill, 10 inches of snow and counting, I've already plowed out the neighbors once and will have to do it againg but its warm in the house and never to early to start drinking vodka.

I had better visibility last night after 8 glasses of Crown with one hand over my eye.

hattori hanzo, Dec 13 2008, 12:45 pm

Dorks.

Murray Chadwick, Dec 13 2008, 12:45 pm

I'll bet after that was all said and done they all went back to their dorms and said things like "what a bally-who!" and "Goodness Gracious that was a hoot-a-nanny!" over nice warm mugs of hot cocoa.

bradymancrush, Dec 13 2008, 1:05 pm

The Ya'll thing was the first thing I noticed too.
I go to college in Newton (originally from the Cape) and I'm pretty sure the almost 4 years I've been here I've never heard anybody say Ya'll before.

plus if you're in college you should know that Ya'll isn't even a fucking word. fuckin confederate wanna be.

cooljacksnowboarder, Dec 13 2008, 1:08 pm

I'd bet Manzo prefers the Civ. scream over this.

BigTomCallahan, Dec 13 2008, 1:12 pm

I owned a little bar & grill in Virginia and there were lots of kids from the North East that went to Washington & Lee right next door to me. Inevitably they would all end up with the worst little fake accents.....little rich kids from New England saying "Y'all"'s.....pitiful.

Is was made all that much more excellent when I would start hitting the sauce later in the evening and my Mass accent would start coming out.

bradymancrush, Dec 13 2008, 1:14 pm

Bunch of pussies, I bet there wasn't one hit of blotter acid, one bag of wed, or even a 40 oz to be found...d-bags

Don Juan, Dec 13 2008, 1:29 pm

That shits not even the best rave this week in North Carolina. They did the same thing at UNC-Chapel Hill last week:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruEMaDZWRcs

And Chapel hill was better you squid.

Hash_Hound, Dec 13 2008, 1:44 pm

That was pretty lame that they did it in the lobby of the library, I went to one at UVA last night, and we went down into the stacks where normally people are out for blood if you drop a pin.

pwt3d, Dec 13 2008, 2:06 pm

dude that get together at unc cant even be considered a rave in comparison to the charleston one... its a fucking dance party. half the kids are standing on the sideline like scalabrine waiting to get in

PhuckThePhilliesPenn'11, Dec 13 2008, 2:08 pm

i guess jumping around like a bunch of birds is going to ease the tension of finals...now they have to go back and study sweaty and without any dignity

DAMS14, Dec 13 2008, 2:40 pm

Lets be honest, the College of Charleston isn't exactly an academic institution, that was probably the first time most of those kids even went to the library

pwt3d, Dec 13 2008, 2:59 pm

Sitting in the lab next to my buddy from Newton and he's ashamed that this kid is from the Garden City... where there's a Rose-in-bloom on every corner.

Seeing how they're in the south that was probably the second time they had to study all year. Good thing they are ready to study now that they got that out of their system.

timmyc13, Dec 13 2008, 3:28 pm

FUCK UNC!!

Chav, Dec 13 2008, 3:34 pm

gotta get as many of these videos sent in as you can...put up a bracket and find out who raves the best...right now C of C is trouncing UNC

Weezy Baby, Dec 13 2008, 3:37 pm

I agree with Weezy lets get a tourney going.

College has been the time of my life and I'm gonna plan one of these shin-digs to show you how we get down in Rhody. Anyone hating on this video is out of touch with reality and needs a nice shot of life. As long as no one is fucking these raves up by being assholes and starting fights then its all good.

Or maybe someone should start fights and let it get interesting. Just buy a Looch Crew shirt and you'll be all set. "Thats how we get down in VT."

timmyc13, Dec 13 2008, 4:01 pm

Down the road at Duke they had a giant gang rape.

bronko, Dec 13 2008, 4:09 pm

UMASS!!!!!! what what

Da_Man, Dec 13 2008, 4:17 pm

overall that shit was pretty cool. nothing mindblowing but entertaining. if you go to school in the south you'll understand why he's saying y'all, every single fucking person uses it. if youre there long enough it gets ingrained in the way you speak. heated76 sounds like a pretty tough guy making tough comments while also you phrases like "the cat's meow" and "combo snack" hahahaha what a phanuk.

mizzle15, Dec 13 2008, 4:32 pm

lemme tell you fucking scrambled eggs something. This fucking jew from Jewton thinks hes the cats meow cause he had a fucking rave at his school???? whoopppeddeeedoo u fucking hard on. A bunch of fucking fruitloops rolling like a fucking combo snack. If i was at this rave I would be going around knocking these southern faggets out with my batter ram right hand.

Manlove4Brady, Dec 13 2008, 5:19 pm

thats cool they should really party not dance in the library like a bunch of chodes

sonnybono, Dec 13 2008, 6:06 pm

Heated,

You are a sackless fucking loser. You are the fucking stereotypical internet tough guy. It's a fucking joke that you don't see that. You're like that little fucking hand dog that doesn't stop yapping. I'd love to see you sack up and fucking walk into a bar and start spouting the shit you talk. You fucking zero.

Cue some more drivel from the wee man in Weston with 3 degrees, an ugly wife and pussy kids.

Soog, Dec 13 2008, 6:06 pm

I didn't know they had libraries in the South, nor academics.

TJLuke001, Dec 13 2008, 6:15 pm

Good thing they don't do this at UConn, the basketball team would have a field day with all those unattended laptops.

laffinsays, Dec 13 2008, 6:56 pm

I wouldn't mind seeing this at the W.E.B. Dubois

shanman45, Dec 13 2008, 7:13 pm

Yeah TJLuke, they must all be really dumb in the South. Look at the comments here and you can tell everyone up North is brilliant.

zizou, Dec 13 2008, 7:22 pm

Im pretty sure college of charleston is in the top ten for hottest girls in the country. When your bangin a hot chick every night you can say ya'll or whatever the fuck you want. The ugliest girl at cofc would win the "smokeshow of the day" contest hands down.

1717, Dec 13 2008, 9:32 pm

Rear,
Took Wings also, down 2-1, should come back against Phoenix but we'll see. Bruins -1.5 last night and tonight evened me up. Ryder starting to hit his stride. I know its only Atlanta but have to be excited each and every night with this team and Caps just beat Habs for the bonus in the East. Hate how they dont play til THU now.

Skank Martin, Dec 13 2008, 10:22 pm

Since ya'll are gonna talk about how bad the south is I have to weigh in my 2 cents. I am from the south and I read your website all the time, and enjoy the comments and such.

I recently moved to eastern New York, and I for one do not know any reason why anyone would want to live in this part of the country. The weather sux, people are mean (go ahead a prove me right), everything costs more, and there are VERY few hot women.

Now those of you that have lived in the south can understand what I am saying. If there is one person who has lived in both areas (and is not gay) please let me know why people are so proud of the north!

And for those of you who tell me just to move back I already am.

tdh17, Dec 13 2008, 10:30 pm

Is Michael Ryder the JD Drew of the Bruins? No emotion just production.

CptKangarooBalls, Dec 13 2008, 10:44 pm

— tdh17, Dec 13 2008, 10:30 pm

I grew up on the cape, went to The University of Georgia, and have a few answers. Yes the girls are hotter. Yes the weather is better. Yes everything is more expensive, but the people aren't mean. the people are honest. down south everyone is nice to your face then talk tons of shit the second you walk away. up here they just speak thier minds and you know where you stand with everyone. Helps out alot when you need someone you can trust. The most annoying thing for me though was the slow pace of everything. Drove me nuts.

Side note: This kid has got it all wrong. if anything, laying on the boston accent a little thicker than reality is the way to go. the southern girls ate that shit up!

And someone posted that Ya'll isn't a real word earlier. thats not true. It's an abreviation for You All. It used to be considered proper english but fell out of favor a long time ago. -The more you know!

jnick083, Dec 13 2008, 11:22 pm

Haha I would say that myself Kballs if it weren't for the fact that, unlike JD Drew, Ryder actually flashed a smile after his 1 second too late almost hat trick. But either way, I'll take the production over the emotion although seeing the Capitals bench react tonight after Nylander scored the game winner was classic...

Side Note- I think tonight was the first game on NESN since its inception that the Asian chick behind the B's bench wasn't eating nacho's and pounding beer every time they showed her, I seriously thought the Jacobs brothers were paying her to pound food and $7 draft beers on TV.

Skank Martin, Dec 13 2008, 11:34 pm

ok skank, this is not the place to post this.

being in college, I thought the raves were pretty funny. It would be a hell of alot more funny if it was just 600 people that planned it on their own without the admin of the college knowing.

Ya'll is a pretty stupid phase.

Hot chics are in much larger quantities in the south.

It's 15 degrees out and i'm cold as fuck right now.

Foxboro_at_heart, Dec 13 2008, 11:43 pm

— Foxboro_at_heart, Dec 13 2008, 11:43 pm

15? You lucky fuck! It's 8 below here by the Rockies and going to be -20 tonight and a high of -5 tomorrow. If it was 15 out I'd be shoveling snow in a speedo! Of coure at 15 I'd look like a female beach volleyball player.

hattori hanzo, Dec 13 2008, 11:48 pm

Skank Martin, Dec 13 2008, 11:34 pm

WELL DONE! Love the asian chick observation.

CptKangarooBalls, Dec 13 2008, 11:49 pm

Skank,

Great fucking point on the Asian chick!

Look, I don't judge people on where they are from but if the weather is a reason then you are a pussy. Can't handle cold weather? Weak fucking person.

Soog, Dec 14 2008, 2:12 am

Can't handle the weather? You act like we are in the 16th century and dont have any choices?!
Jnick, good post, I partially agree with your post about the attitudes, Youre right maybe not mean, per say, but certainly NOT courteous and rude. Dont get me wrong there are certainly some nice people here.

tdh17, Dec 14 2008, 9:12 am

Best bets on BSS are the miscellaneous Rear ADmiral NHL money lines. This is like 6 for 6 for me the last two years. A little too close for comfort though last night Rear.

Thanks man. Yeah, a little close. But a W is a W. Hope you jumped on Pacquiao last weekend.

rearadmiral, Dec 14 2008, 12:09 pm

Tell them the truth Rearadmiral, you hedged the puck line with the money line. So it =was a wash. Can I get some credit for my picks last night? 7-2 $540

No seriously....they are ALL cougars.

LittleLebowskiUA, Dec 14 2008, 3:04 pm

if this shit ever happened at the zoo we would get rocked by rubber bullets, tear gas, pepper spray, and attacked by canines.

tm0ney23, Dec 14 2008, 5:31 pm

Foxboro_at_Heart,
I apologize for misplacing my Boston SPORTS post in a fucking way too cool for me college rave section you rubber. You think that "raves are pretty funny and thay would be way more funny if they were a suprise hehe, LOL"!!! It doesn't matter how many hot chic(k)s there are in or around your location if you are attracted to men. You should be thankful its 15 degrees Elton John, its usually colder off the ocean in PTown in DEC. Have your boyfriend shove a glowstick up your ass @ your next rave champ.

Skank Martin, Dec 14 2008, 6:59 pm

they*

Skank Martin, Dec 14 2008, 7:00 pm

1. The girls at both of those schools are absurdly hot, so that would have been amazing except for the fact that it was in the library, and in my experience, hot girls don't hang around in the library waiting for a spontaneous rave, so it was probably all beat chicks in that thing.

2. I am from Mass, but went to school in Richmond, VA, and played ball with a bunch of kids from Carolina, and I absolutely found myself throwing "y'all" into casual conversation, even at home. That would be like somebody coming to Boston for 4 years and picking up the occasional "wicked". Happens all the time.

3. Even though I got this kid's back on the y'all thing, I still would never ever write it in anything, including an email to the stool, so that has got to go.

IrishTrinity, Dec 14 2008, 10:21 pm

does the name rearadmiral seem very gay to anyone else? what a homosapien

Chav, Dec 15 2008, 2:49 am

"ease the stress of the students..." Stree of students? They got the world by the balls; party, read a bit, watch girls, pick girls up, drink, screw for an hour.... where is the "stress" in that?

How about having rotten kids, no sex from your wife, a mortgage that would bankrupt a small country, no college savings for your rotten kids, a pile of bills, a 401K that is now a 101K and a shakey job with a shitty boss, and rooting for a shitty football team that everyone thinks will make the playoffs? Stress.....

TradeBaitBrady, Dec 15 2008, 10:27 am

^ouchhhhhh

The kid who submitted is a dbag. You don't say y'all. Period. Not to mention, UNC's rave, although still gay annnnd featured a a dance off with gay semi-pro ravers a la former Avalon patrons, and STILL SHAT on his. That's how bad it was.
