T ne week after Easter, UNC students
worshipped their own trinity of
gods sun, beer and rock and rolL
The gods were kind.
A 30-foot high inflated beer bottle
atop the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity house
was the mecca that attracted more than
5,000 restless students. It was Burnout,
an annual party appropriately cele
brated on a warm Friday afternoon in
spring.
By the end of the afternoon, people
had consumed 1,162 gallons (75 kegs)
of beer and left a dumpster full of empty
cans and bottles.
Rocker Marshall Crenshaw was the
high priest presiding over the crowd
with his upbeat guitar numbers that got
the crowd singing and clapping along.
Cars were crammed in any available
spot some even parked in Durham
The 75 k3 went test even by too cup&'I.
County a mile away. Sterh-faced
owners of neighboring businesses stood
guard over their lots ready to confront
non-paying squatters.
The ritual began in 1977 three
years after a fire destroyed the fraternity
house. All proceeds go to the the N.C.
Memorial Hospital Burn Center.
The Burnout was sponsored by radio
station 94-Z, Domino's Pizza and Miller
Beer.
"We were very pleased," said Eric
Tellefsen, Burnout co-chairman. "We
made a few changes this year to make
it more organized, including a more
serious effort to collect donations. The
radio station, 94-Z, helped a lot in
selling T-shirts and in advertising. We
sold about 400 more T-shirts this year
than last.
We are still tallying, but we are
counting on about $4,000 profit,"
Tellefsen said.
