Think you’re Northwestern’s Big Man on Campus?
Eighteen years ago NU students, pets and other objects were competing for Alpha Chi Omega sorority’s BMOC contest, an annual fundraiser for cystic fibrosis.
Contenders included Norton, Phi Kappa Psi fraternity’s dog; Dave “The Sandwich Man”; and The Rock.
Candidates with 50 votes or more got their names printed in The Daily, and the winner received a keg of beer.
Dave Arai, then a Weinberg junior, planned to vote for Norton.
“The Elder bong isn’t in the race this year,” he said. “So we’re hopeful that Norton can win.”
A bong, wrote the Daily reporter, is “used to smoke marijuana.”
Oh, so that’s what they’re used for. nyou
