Our city's annual buffoonery, also know as “Kegs and Eggs,” commenced this weekend with five UAlbany students arrested and city police almost as scratched and battered as one Nissan Maxima .
My “partying” friends usually overwhelm me with funny stories of their drunken expeditions with colored photos to document it. This year I haven’t heard a thing from them but I already have an earful.
The Times Union wrote and blogged about it, local bloggers called out students and faculty, while YouTube and Local NBC affiliate WNYT passed the disturbing videos along. Even a site called Irishcentral.com covered it. All of this culminates to an Associated Press piece nabbed by nothing less than the Wall Street Journal Online.
Apparently, while some students were rioting, throwing beer bottles and attacking police officers, others decided to assault the aforementioned car. Apparently nobody noticed, or cared, that they were being videotaped during this.
It’s been reiterated repeatedly how instantly information is passed on in the blogosphere, now UAlbany knows just how fast, and horrible, this truly is.
