I actually really love this article, it's well written and the format is refreshing. Love the infographics.

Surprised as well about the 19.73 Units of alcohol at York, Assassin's society and 20 minute society :lol:

wonder what those two involve. Extreme ironing is a cool sport as well, not sure if it exists as a society anymore(?) though.

Looks like Loughborough is mentioned quite a few times in the infographics. Something to look forward to! :rofl:

You won't get beaten up for being a fresher like what happens to Chris on Family Guy will you, forcing you to flee to the deep south of South America? :zomg:

Assassin's society is where people are given targets within the society then you have to dream up the wackiest way to "kill" each other e.g. drop a cardboard fridge on them that kinda stuff. 20 minute society is wicked it's like you give them your number then they'll text you random stuff like: you have 20 minutes to get to this location to receive your prize. It might be a free meal etc. One time I heard it was you have 20 minutes to get to newcastle airport to win a free flight to amsterdam like people ran out of lectures and stuff.
