Voting Delegates: Andy McClelland & Vanessa Ayala-Pech were selected, but due to confusion in flights, would've missed the last day. Kalen Fu & Samantha Warriner subbed in for them.

The Blizzard that rolled in on December 29th and snowed in anyone trying to leave on the 31st. Many wouldn't be able to get out until January 2nd.
Parallel Parking in the MIDDLE of the road.
Late night runs to Geno's and Pat's for Philly Cheesesteaks.
- Being mocked by the cashiers for not knowing the right way to order.
A whole bunch of brothers road tripped up to NYC to see the ball drop in Times Square.
- Many of them were the same people who were snowed in earlier and had a few days to kill
There are a LOT of toll roads around there. It costs like $10 in tolls to drive from Philly to DC, although that includes a bridge and a tunnel.
- They charge you $4.00 to drive on I-95 in Delaware. It only crosses the state for 13 miles. They charge it in both directions. Bastards, there's not even any bridges. I know its a turnpike, but $4.00? Both ways? For Delaware? Oooh Wilmington!
Camden, NJ is a pit. Except for Rutgers. Some parts of South Philly are no garden spot either.
Everyone returned home and a came down with this brutally phlegmmy cold that was nicknamed "The Philly Crud"
Football games run really frigging late on the East coast. Like they end at 1 am.
- The idiot outside our room shouting "How 'bout them Birds?" at 1:30 am.
