Mirror Lake baby! old tradition, the thursday before the M*C*I*G*N
game, everyone on campus jumps into mirror lake. Not everyone does it of course, but it is fucking crazy. After 5 minutes, you cant feel anything below the waist. but it is SO worth it.

1. Don't worry.
You haven't lost them. They didn't fall off in the ice water. They've merely burrowed deep to escape the cold, and they will return to their usual hangout as your body temperature approaches normal again. When you wake up in the morning, they should be right back where you last saw them.

4. interestingly enough
the tradition is strictly forbidden by the university. there are cops there the whole time, but would YOU want to tell at least 20,000 drunken students that they need to leave in an orderly fashion?
