The Battle of Sportalia

An incident where two students threw water balloons at sportalians after lights out midway through the second week. The occurrence of this is thought to be the reason why the planned room checks did not take place that evening.

"NO BIG BOOTY BITCHES"

Mid second week of session 2, two CTYI students noticed the simplicity of the generic "No smoking, drugs or alcohol" signs put up all over res and decided to make their own signs in the library. 10 signs with the rule "No Big Booty Bitches" were printed in the library and bluetacked next to the other signs all around Res, causing many a giggle among residents. The signs were quickly removed by several of the RAs, but it still was awesome.

Casino Night

Some of the CTYI Banknotes used in Casino Night
This took place on the first Sunday of Session 2. This night gave the students a chance to trial out gambling using monopoly-style money featuring the CTYI director and counselors faces in place of the American presidents. The casino games included; Blackjack, Texas Hold 'Em, Roulette, Hi-Lo and Connect Four. Prostitution was common with some students choosing to sell members of their RA groups. The event also featured a "Chapel O' Love" where students could get a quick and easy marriage to fall into the theme of Vegas. All money won by each RA group was then counted up and prizes were auctioned off. The most popular prizes included; Make another RA group sing to your group (Michael's group to Treasa's...the song was 'Baby Got Back'); Soak an RA (Sarah), Send two RAs on a date (John and Treasa- never happened), Make two RAs swap clothes (Tadhg and Laura- excellently funny), Take-out party, pizza party, make another RA group be your slaves for a day (Catriona's group to John's group), make another RA group do the morning run (John's group to Catriona's group in return. Sadly, neither happened as the boys were obstinate feckers who found out about the girls' plan to make the boys carry them, and dug their heels in, calling it off), Mystery Prizes etc. Quite similar to "A night at the races" in Session 2 2008, this night was very enjoyable for all. Although some took it too seriously, even going so far as to trade fake money for real cash!
