The path of funny papers leads to the Theta house. The dance takes place behind the house with a local band playing. Small group of people are escorted through the house on a tour given by at least three Thetas. The guys receive the T-shirt anonymously and are told to wear them to classes the next day. After everyone has arrived at the house and their dates have been revealed, Anderson's Bowling Alley is filled with all the Thetas and their dates.
Every couple is given a pair of plastic hand-cuffs.
It makes it difficult, yet entertaining to see all the couples struggle to bowl while handcuffed together. After dressing up in camouflage, face paint and Army apparel the Thetas storm across campus chanting and causing a lot of commotion. The girls make their way through dorms and fraternity houses and randomly grab a date. As each girl grabs their date, the guys and girls run back to the house for pizza and desserts. This takes place during the first semester, usually around Christmas time.
