Wazoo Weekend devastates PBA campus, reports Beacon

Palm Beach Atlantic students are just now starting to recover from the devastation wrought by the activities of Wazoo Weekend.


The event, which made landfall on August 29, caused a great deal of damage – estimated at $100 million – to the campus before leaving late on September 1. Authorities approximate several hundred students lost their homes and even more were without power due to the disaster.


“Hurricane Ike looks like a puddle in comparison with the storm of activity that Wazoo Weekend brought to the Palm Beach Atlantic University campus,” reported Beacon contributing writer Danielle Happysen. [See article.]


Many students who refused to evacuate before the event were caught in the direct hit of the jumping, jiving, and jousting. FEMA and the American Red Cross have been assisting survivors for the past two weeks.


“I can’t say for sure whether Palm Beach Atlantic will be able to recover from Wazoo Weekend in the near future,” said FEMA Head R. David Paulison. “Reconstruction efforts may take upwards of ten years, with luck.”


Note: We do not mean to belittle the damage done by Hurricane Ike. Our hearts and prayers go out to those affected by the storm.

The Beacon article almost hurt to read.Thanks (again) for always saving us from The Beacon's less-than-stellar reporting, Bacon. What would I do without you?

uh....seriously? The Beacon may have been bad, but this article was aweful. Not funny at all.

What about writing on Christival? The shirts are 80's throwback this year, maybe because that's the last time it was really a Christian atmosphere at PBA(according to posters here). Mahanes could have been trying to bring back the good old times. That would have been a classic Bacon article. Too bad you blew it again.

oh, anonymous, u silly goose said...

naw, this was definitely funny

I have a feeling that anonymous is the same anonymous who puts down every article for no reason. With that there is only one person who dislikes the bacon he just likes to write a lot.

I like how the Bacon was able to capture how the most important item for PBA students during a flood is - beer. (look at picture)
