"How Come You Don't Post Hazing Pictures Anymore?"
Another one of the questions I get asked frequently, especially since May of 2006 when I broke the story about the Northwestern women's soccer team and the pictures they posted online of their 2005 freshman initiation. That -- along with our Dirty Dozen -- got a lot of media attention. But after that, I thought I had pretty much seen what was out there to be seen, at least in terms of sports initiation pictures.
That is, until I was doing research on another story and found a set of 88 pictures (labeled Initiation 2006) that appears to have broken some new ground. First though, I have to tell you that I still have not figured out who these guys play for, but the pictures are allegedly of an initiation of MEN'S college field hockey team, a sport that's not that popular with the guys here in the US. My guess is that they are English speaking, likely from the UK, Australia, or possibly Canada. (If anyone can help me with the ID, I would appreciate it.) Anyway, there are 88 pictures in this album and they start off traditional enough, with the freshmen dressed in bikinis and wearing wigs and in some cases make-up and nail polish. There is a lot of drinking that goes on and then a lot of puking. Looks like the upperclassmen came prepared as everyone has their own bucket. Then things get weird.
They first start using those hair removal strips that women use on their legs and appear to be taking hair off guy's chests and underarms. Then, the frosh are presented with a roasted chicken and what appears to be a block of butter or cheese and are forced to eat it. But not before, IT APPEARS, that the upperclassmen smother it in Vagisil. (For those that don't know, Vagisil is a female hygiene product used to ease itching DOWN THERE.) It's not likely the manufacturer intended it to be used as poultry seasoning. The guys do eat it like a pack of hungry wolves, and then--naturally--there's more drinking and puking. But we're not finished yet! There are still a few more photos of the lads, still dressed as dames, riding a bus and then inside a pub or tavern of some kind. And more puking.
Below are several pictures from the album (don't worry, I saved the best ones) including an early drinking shot where you can see the package of Vagisil on the table, a later shot of the chicken with something white smeared on it, and finally the freshman eating the chicken. Below that is a link to the entire album.
As I said earlier, if anyone can figure out who these guys are, I would appreciate it. Needless to say, this has to be one of the worst sets of hazing pics I have ever seen. You are welcome to leave your comments below.
Here's a link to the full album. At least, until someone pulls it down.
