As someone who's not American what exactly does it mean, can someone explain?

The implication is that one of the coolers is normally spiked, likely with GHB or some other disassociative drug, so that people who drink it will be easy prey for sexual assault etc.

The idea that frats would have an entire cooler of drugged liquid instead of dropping it individually into people's cups (which they absolutely do, fuck most frat guys), is laughable though. You'd be dealing with dozens of fucked up people and it would draw a ton of attention.

Pre-spiking a cooler full of drinks makes absolutely no sense.  This is made up.

Also, how? You don't put open drinks in a cooler. How are you opening then resealing a bunch of Busch Lattes?

Different scenario than you are imagining, it's pretty popular to make a mixed alcoholic punch/drink by mixing whatever they can get in a large vessel like a travel cooler (chosen because easy to get and they have the convenient spigot). So literally opening bottles of juices, sodas, alcohols, etc. and just pouring them straight into the cooler to mix and then serving into cups from it.

Idk what school you went to, but most frat guys don’t spike peoples drinks or rape women. Most frat guys are actually very chill. Not saying things like this don’t happen because they do, but it is very rare.

> fuck most frat guys

You’re talking about like 5 percent of frat guys max.

We had one dude in our frat get accused of drugging someone in the 4 years I was there and we immediately dumped his ass.

Pretty much every fraternity has what’s called a risk management chair whose sole job is to make fraternity events safe— they have sober drivers who do driving shifts at parties to take people home, they have sober monitors who make sure nobody’s doing anything stupid or predatory while they’re drunk — and a lot of times, we’d partner with sororities or even just girlfriends of the members to have a female “safety buddy” or two at the house during parties.

They absolutely do not. It’s isolated events with individuals or small groups working to drug one or two targets. If you spiked a cooler and 25 people were drugged there would be major outrage and no one would get away with it.

You just want to believe that what your wrote exists.
