Editorial
New safety bus service will provide students rides home
Issue date: 4/30/07 Section: Opinions
SCSU students who make frequent weekend or weekday visits to downtown may be happy to know that a new, and free, pick up service will be available for anyone who happened to down too many tequila shots.
The recent Student Government Association referendum, which featured the addition of a safety bus, was approved and passed by students. Buses are expected to grace downtown St. Cloud at the start of next year, and this editorial board is anticipating a flurry of drunken antics soon to follow.
Considering this editorial board's love of lists, the board figured it would be appropriate to compile one more list before the year is out. Here is a top seven list of things safety bus drivers should prepare to see next year.
1. Body parts of all shapes and sizes.
2. Contents of everything students ate and drank that night vomited onto the floor.
3. Impromptu "American Idol" tryouts from students singing "Sweet Caroline……bah, bah, bah."
4. Two males attempting to show each other up, with phrases such as, "Man up, pimp!" being shouted continuously for 20 minutes.
5. Desperate pick up lines from the lonely, drunk man in the back corner of the bus.
6. Countless attempts by college students to get the driver to take a Jell-O shot or do a keg stand while driving.
7. Students finding themselves more lost after passing out on the bus throughout the entire ride and getting off at the wrong stop.
