INTERMISSION 10 Freshmen survive slave sale It was my turn. I stood in the middle of the stage and wondered what those seniors were going to do to me. I was shaking, but as I looked around, I noticed that there were 82 other freshmen just as scared as I was. Someone dressed in a Ku Klux Klan outfit ordered me to start doing pushups. I thought, “Am I the only one who is embarrassed, or has everyone experienced this? The students were cheering and hollering at the auctioneer, “Make him sing the fight song; make him wiggle for us!” Trembling with fear, ail I could hear was the auctioneer telling them to start their bidding. My knees began to wobble. It seemed like everyone’s eyes pinned me to the stage. I began to wonder, Did I wear the same color of socks? Oh my gosh, is my hair combed?” Okay, $10, do I hear $12? Going once, twice, sold! As my sellers led me to my owner, I realized that the slave sale was going to be only a beginning of my freshman memories. ... The Senior Class kicked off their moneymaking year by raising $850.00 at the slave sale. Randy Tryon sold for the most which was $70.00 at the auction block. The next day on campus there were slaves tied to the freshman lockers with toilet paper. Some had steer horns on while others wore pickles around their necks. There were show girls, housewives, and babies seen all over campus. .. . Well, I made it through Friday. As I looked in the mirror on Monday morning, there was no more pink hair, no baby bottles, everything was back to normal. But I’d better start saving my money because next year I’m going to be a sophomore. I can’t wait to get revenge and own a few slaves myself, no matter what the cost!
