With many students using the break to visit home and see their family, there were no rolls this weekend. The students that stayed on campus got the chance to sleep in, relax, and work more on buggy than they otherwise would. Since there were no rolls this weekend, it seems like the perfect chance to [...]
Sweepstakes and the teams are on the ball and the 93rd season of buggy is scheduled to kick off this Saturday at 7:01am. Are you ready? Are you excited? Is this the last thing on the list telling you that you have to admit that summer is over? Well get ready, and get excited, because [...]
The rain held off for long enough to squeeze the women’s finals run starting earlier than scheduled at 8am. A quick downpour doused the crowd waiting for the men’s heats to begin, and sweepstakes called it. SDC takes both the Men’s and Women’s crowns for 2012. More wrap-up later! Enjoy the rest of carnival! Final [...]

Assuming there’s no blizzard (none on the horizon), enough teams get capes done (they are scheduling now), and the weather stays mild (current forecast: partly cloudy and low 30′s), we could be 5 days from starting another season of spring freerolls! To set the mood, I’ve included a slightly obfuscated picture from exactly 8 years [...]
It’s that time of year again at the corner of Tech and Frew. The permits are in and this Sunday the 18th is the first potential day of rolls. The chairmen have been meeting for weeks, the drivers have had their meetings, and at least a few teams have their capes taken care of. Currently [...]
Aw crap. It was announced this afternoon that PiKA’s charter has been revoked by the school CMU chapter will not be recognized for at least four years. Losing PiKA from campus is obviously a huge loss to the greek community and to the broader social community at CMU in which they played a consistently central role. [...]
Letting Sam take a well-deserved break from running the site, I thought I’d update everyone with the results from last night’s Sweepstakes Committee election. Winners in bold along with their org and their class as of next year. Chairman Anthony Pacella (SigEp, Senior) Jeff Bouton (PiKA, Junior) Ass Chair Kevin Jang (KapSig, Senior) Jeff Bouton [...]
Sweepstakes has decided to spare everyone a few soggy hours in the rain and cancel Saturday’s races now. With 100% chance of rain for every relevant hour and a huge mass of green on the radar, it was definitely the sane call to make. That means that today’s prelim results are final, and Fringe [...]
