Exclusive to a handful of students. Red pots were upperclassmen in charge of Bonfire.. the "jizz jar" tradition was either junior class red pots or seniors, can't recall which.

Cousin was a mid 80's red pot in the 80's, don't know if RP's even exist anymore... they were tied into heavy litigation after '99.

Search with one of the TAMU independent fan boards and I'm sure you'll find it referenced with authenticity. Weird as furk to most of us, but a certain USA hockey team by way of a BC hockey tradition embraced it and it as an alpha/elite ritual of honor to them.

At least the red pots weren't doing it together/same time as far as I'm aware.

Unfortunately I can believe that the redpots of my class were in many ways directly and indirectly responsible for the bonfire collapse due to carelessness and negligence. (1st stack being put in wrong while the remainder put in correctly was the physical cause of the collapse - the resulting hoop stress from stacks 2-6 pushing down on the bottom stack made it burst like an overfilled barrel)
