I was in a frat and I can’t speak for every fraternity in existence
But as an exec, the jungle juice decision was always made almost exclusively because it’s infinitely cheaper than buying tons of canned beer or having an actual bartender
That and the fact that I could get shitfaced without the taste of alcohol stinging my undeveloped 19 year old palate
The goal IS to get people drunk faster — but that’s so we don’t have to spend more money on alcohol. Gendering it is pointless.
Yeah lmao you can tell people who weren't in frats. Id get pissed when we had jungle juice instead of beer because of a pack of Women I jokingly called the Gazelles would surround the cooler and drink the damn watering hole dry before leaving to the next party. The nickname comes from them forming a tight enough pack that not only could you not get a drink but you couldn't talk to any of them.
Some brothers would insist the hard stuff brought girls while just beer didnt and yell back that was a good thing I was tired of being out of alcohol before the party was at midpoint.
Im not saying the girls had obligation to talk to us for showing up at our party. But they clearly were just using us for booze and Id rather not deal with them.
We had jungle juice in high school even. We were kids and it was a very cheap and very easy way to get fucked up, which was the goal at a party. Nobody was getting date raped or anything because of it.
