Here are 30 Edi student ‘Never Have I Evers’ that you’ve definitely done

17. Paid £4 delivery for McDonald’s because Princes Street is just too far away


It’s fair to say that while four years may sound like a long time, your years at Edinburgh Uni actually go by in the blink of an eye. We all know the basic Edinburgh must-dos, like climbing Arthur’s Seat and attending Fringe, but any Edi student will tell you there is a much longer and more important list of things you must check off before you can graduate.

Just in case you’re not sure what these bucket list items are, we’ve come up with a list of 30 ‘Never Have I Evers’ that all Edi students have either done or are guaranteed to do before their four years are up (with the exception of maybe one or two). This is also the perfect list to pull out at pres for a quick drinking game that will get you buzzed before you head out. You’re welcome.

So with all that in mind, let’s see how many of these you’ve actually done:

You should have completed these in first year

1. Never have I ever been to pres at Pollock.

2. Never have I ever had the Teviot nachos.

3. Never have I ever had a barbecue on Portobello beach.

5. Never have I ever watched a match at The Pear Tree.
