Fall Drunk Law students danced the night away at the annual Fall Drunk, sponsored by the Student Bar Association. The Drunk was held at the Austin Opry House the night before Halloween. Prizes for the best costumes ranged from bar review courses to Southwest Airlines flights to dinners at Green Pastures restaurant. Audience applause was the key factor in determining who won these prizes. Some of the best costumes included Baby Jessica, the Red Herrings and a battered wife. There were also quite a few Judge Horks wandering around. The SB A printed and sold two different T-shirts commemorating this law school tradition. Music was provided by Hot Cakes, a popular Sixth Street band. Because of the new awareness surrounding drinking while driving, the SBA was pressured to change the name of the Fall Drunk next year. Perhaps they coukl call it the Fall Sober. — ftatwm
