Mine was pretty tame, they just got us all (and themselves) blindingly drunk, but some can be a bit yucky- my flatmate's lacrosse team has to drink shots through tampons and mixed with spaghetti hoops, or cream liquer and lemon juice.. bleugh.

Mine was a rubix cube night... great fun, although I don't remember anything after about midnight. I did some weird stuff when I got some though, such as pouring a glass of water into my top drawer.

We played pub golf with the rugby guys. The pub par involved how quick you had to drink it. Par 1 = drinking it in one lot, Par 2 = drinking it in two lots, etc...

We ended up at the Queen Mary's student bar somehow, I was ****ed by about 9pm. :/

My friend who went to Loughborough had to drink a pint of wee, which is pretty gross..

Loughborough is pretty bad for the sporting teams - the rugby club had to go out wearing either boxers or shoes, do some disgusting things (like Kittennffc just mentinoed) as well as a pub crawl!

My friend in the Hockey team had to go down a water slide... execpt it wasn't water, it was sick/urine!

Saying that some clubs aren't too bad, i just had to do a 3legged pub crawl and my friend just had to dress up as an Oompa Loompa!!

The worst are the drinking clubs within the halls, last year they had to down 3 bottles of wine and eat a goldfish!!

Did proper rugby initiation, apparently the pub golf was just the warm up "nice to know you event". Loads of guys recorded it on their phones so there's no chance of me becoming prime minster before that comes out.

First in the middle of the rugby field stripped of all clothes. 3 pints of lager (there were 3 new players this season present at the game) placed in front of us. Dick in the pint, doing press ups. 20 press ups later run from the try line to the 22 yard line, get back to the pints. Had to drink down someone else's pint... ew. Run out to the 22 yard line and back.

Then eat frozen solid crab sticks with the wrapping on. This made me puke... twice. Out to the 22 yard line and back. Then back to poor down a half pint of vodka and gin. It was really hard because it's such a strong drink... Out and back to the 22 yard line. Then time for a table spoon of coleslaw and a bottle of actimel. 22 yard line and back. Then ran back and had to drink a pint of guiness with... a raw fish floating around in it. An entire herring. Lovely... then out to the 22 yard line and back. Then because I finished last I got to the drink a pint of Baileys laced with gin, plus another herring in the glass for good measure.

The worst part about the fish in the booze was the fact that fish scales would build up your mouth pretty quickly and it was giving me the gag reflex which is bad news since I'm **** at downing pints as it is. Also the continous running back and forth between the try line and the 22 yard line was fairly stomach churning.

Also because I lost I spent the whole night wearing a superman suit. King's College (who we played beforehand) were down watching it all too.

Looking forward to next year though when I can enforce this on other new players.

EDIT: If you were the guy on Wednesday at the sport's complex home to Watford's football team (somewhere in Hertfordshire?) wearing a gimp suit all night after rugby, I have photos of you too. :biggrin:

Rugby has a reputation for initiations!!! I've only just joined the women's rugby team - I'm not looking forward to any initiations!

So far at Uni, I've heard of someone getting arrested on 'army night' for pointing a toy knife at a police car... again on army night, people rolling over moving cars, drinking a yard of contributions of everyone in the circle's drinks and apple bobbing in gin.

the bsms rugby team had to strip naked in a room full of people, squat down then be fed dry instant mashed potatos, they then had to drink the bsms drink which is a shot of baileys, a shot of sambuka, a shot of malibu in a pint of strongbow it had a snicker in it which made the whole thing solidify. They then had to down a pint. It was interesting to watch they did it at the sports social a few weeks ago.

The rugby ones are usually the worst... It's all *******s mind, our lot just go out as a club and drink until we can't see, usually involving drinking games.

Someone in my flat practically had an entire day of initiation. At his training they were all greased up in cooking all, then had to play rugby with a frozen chicken. In the evening they all had to wear women's clothing/ underwear, and then they did some rugby game- the losers ended up going to the SU in just the women's underwear. Coming home to him lying on the floor in see-through primark undies and stockings was not the most pleasant sight in the world, I can tell you! Apparently he had to eat chilli/garlic etc, too. Still, not quite as bad as Iscariot's experience!!

I would never take part in any initiation like the ones mentioned above. Call me a spoil sport, but its this type of behaviour thats giving Britains youth, the binge drinking hooligan label.

I remember seeing the rugby teams initiation in the drapers bar in my first year at queen mary. From what I saw they were all sat around a large square table, they kept drinking until someone needed a piss, that person then had to let out their urine in a huge jug in the middle of the table full of beer & lager. They would then carry on drinking rounds of 4 pints, (I think) the slowest one had to drink from the bowl full of piss. There came a point where some of them were pucking in the bowl and the slowest drinkers having to drink from it.

After that they all got naked so the part of the student bar where they were was closed, so I didnt see anymore I looked pretty gross though.

Just seeing it made me feel like pucking.

had my rugby initations on wedensday, got beasted by my 'daddy' in a pimp and gimp theme.
