In light of Princeton Review's recent party school list - how would you rank the SEC schools you've visited in terms of how outrageous they are with their partying? The Princeton Review says it goes Florida, Georgia and then MS but I say that's way off. IMO it's more like

1. LSU, because they're all (barely) functioning alcoholics
2. Georgia, because heaven probably looks a lot like Athens
3. Bama, because of drugs, smh Bama
4. South Carolina, because their tailgates are just straight debauchery
5. Mississippi, because I've never had a less than awesome time visiting bros in Oxford

Id put Northgate on the friday night before a game up against any place in the country.

As a whole though, probably Georgia. By all accounts that I have heard its fricking amazing.

Georgia



Consistently rated the #1 or #2 party school in the nation. Not even a competition.

i don't know if I would call it that, at least what we got when we were there. I mean it was good usually, but nothing too special except for the rare occasion. I ended up good friends with some guys from Ttown and they usually made it happen. But it didn't seem like people had a hard time finding anything. Pills were everywhere in certain groups when i was there, like valium and shite similar to that.

Ya know I've never been big on that. I mean, yeah some blow is expected, but why start popping downer pills? Why not just order another two shooters? Xanax is pretty abundant here in Columbia, SC but I hate the way people get on that shite when they do it too much, like zombies.

Never really understood what makes a bunch of Princeton nerds the authority on Party Schools.

I think they just survey a lot of students about their and their peers' drinking/drug habits and record the results. Kinda stupid cause I'm sure, say, WVU students are more likely to inflate their drinking habits to make the list than UVA or Washington and Lee students are.

Aside from Vandy, every SEC school is a large state school, so they are all huge party schools if you want them to be. And Vandy is in Nashville so you can probably have yourself quite the wild time there too.

Mostly I consider the party school rankings dumb. I partied my arse off at A&M, which people don't consider a big party school, and always had a crazier time there than I would at other schools I visited, like Texas State for instance, which is considered a notorious party school. If you want to party at any large state school and get blackout and do coke and pills, you probably won't have a hard time finding it.

To break it down more I'd say

Most Pills - Alabama
Heaviest Drinkers - LSU
Most likely to drunk drive donuts around their house in a lifted truck after a win- Auburn *cough SAE *cough
Most Cocaine - Ole Miss
Most lawless tailgates - South Carolina, literally any fraternities tailgate will be a hell of a time
Best Bar Scene - Obviously, UGA, obviously

The correct answer is UK as that is where they make the bourbon. They would be in the Top 25 in the country but Playboy stopped ranking them in the 80's as they considered them as professional and no longer in the college category.

That rumor exists for many, many colleges. Don't believe it.
