Obviously, this truck has two problems. The first is obvious. The second is it is breaking the maximum fraternity flage allowance…there is no viable reason to have two sets of Greek letters on your window.

Also the large white letters are a violation. At UGA fratdaddies should only have one set of the small gold letters on the back window. Sorositutes and non- IFC affiliated “fraternity men” have the massive white letters or the ones that are in an oval sticker.
Good point, and one that needs to be addressed. Being a fratdaddy should be obvious from your appearance and actions…one need not advertise their fratitude with an overly large sticker on their vehicle. In fact, such takes away from one’s fratitude.

I disagree with you Chad,
I believe it is a great recruiting method to having the bigger white letters on the back of your car because when you are driving around campus with your sunroof and windows down jamming to some fratty music with your croakies and visor on you want all to recognize you and correctly associate you with your fraternity. However, the problem I see with the small gold letters is that one may not be able to clearly read them and distinguish you from other frats and that is a no because clearly one should feel that his frat “frats” harder than the others.
If a future fratdaddy is influenced by seeing a car with letters on it, he’s not fratty enough for you anyway. The reason we endorse the small, gold letters is because we espouse the theory that the FDFH (fratdaddy, fratting hard) will show the world through the totality of the actions that he is, in fact, fratting hard. People knowing what fraternity you’re in isn’t a problem…sorostitutes know, and communicate to one another which houses are frattier than others…and it is this favor that will help you most in recruiting.

Leave the big white letters for the sorostitutes, the small gold ones are classic. Besides, if everyone on campus doesn’t already know who you are and what vehicle you drive, you definitely aren’t fratting hard enough.
I saw a truck setup in a similar fashion when I was in Mexico. Funny thing is that it had nice rims on it.

I’m going to go ahead and pretend my letters were just photoshopped on that truck. Ouch, step it up Pi Kapp.

When I showed this to a Pi Phi friend of mine, he looked like he was about to cry.
Luckily though, a true Fratlord never cries (unless the cover band doesn’t know “Don’t Stop Believin’.”

Rocking the large letters is known to true fratties as “frat fronting”. As said before no matter the size of the campus, the fratty community should know your letters and vehicle due to excessive lapping and tune blaring.
The “fratshanes” as we call them may be in a “fraternity” but it is one built on douchebaggery and an abundance of Shane tendancy. Largely ignored at southern schools like my own and others below the mason dickson, they still find a way to prevail on campus and miraculously sometimes owning a house. Thankfully they throw their own bacardi razz keggers and stick away from most legitimate of frat lodges. The best we can to do to prevent these tendancies is continue with the extensive weeding out and harsh “cuts” during rush.
Proper recruitment methods consists of rushee diet beer hazing, multiple dinners at the local hot wings or bbq spot and even more Rich and Rare. “Thoroughbreds” like myself, meaning a dad who can pick and choose his shackee the way he picks out a new fratty polo color (not pastel) also helps influence frattees. (rushees who have frat potential but aren’t pledges or members yet)

I disagree with Anonymous, some rims can be fratty, but only ones that are not excessive, all black, have spokes, ect…. Some rims can be classy, and some serve a purpose, like for example, on a pick-up truck, which I contend to be the frattiest of all vehicles due to its limitless possibilities and obvious shacking potential (whether it be on a bench seat in the cab or, in the case of some open-minded sorostitues, in the bed).
