Like AU virgin

My first experience of an AU night…


Until Wednesday night I had never been to an AU night, as I’d never been part of an AU I’d never really had the chance and felt like I was missing out. So I abused my role as Sports Editor and went with the Boxing society to lose my AU virginity.

Like the avengers, but better

For anyone who has never been, AU night is what would happen if Smiffy’s invented a monthly party. Every sports society chooses a fancy dress theme (Boxing’s was superheroes) then get smashed and go to Walkabout then Aura. At £4 a ticket it’s cheaper than Med and about a million times better.

Popeye gives his approval to AU night

When I got to Walkabout I realised how chaotic the night would be. I was confronted with the sight of what seemed like hundreds of half-dressed rugby #LADS, cricketers dressed as Indians (American Indians not actual Indians, that’d be a bit dodge), and an abundance of men in drag.

Batman and Superman are actually BFFs

This one’s a bit more Village People

Overall AU night was brilliant and made me regret the fact that I missed a whole year of them last year. But as I sit here now, in my boxers listening to Miley Cyrus (no h8 plz) with a massive hangover and an unexplained bruise on my forehead it’s fair to say that AU night is no tender lover – even if it’s your first time – it has completely wrecked me. I’ve lost my AU virginity and I feel dirty.
