MORE THAN 2,000
Cambridge students descended on a quiet park for “Caesarian Sunday”
where drunken revellers stripped half-naked and were left vomiting in
the bushes.
Families looked on in shock as the university students began arriving
for the annual event at about midday today – many armed with bags of
booze.
Caesarian Sunday is seen as the birth of the drinking parties for the
summer term and is historically held on the first May bank holiday.
In the past it began with a wrestling match between the Caesarian
society and their Girton College drinking rivals, but this was banned by
the colleges three years ago.
Many stripped off as the day went on and some of the students were
left struggling to stand, while extra police had been drafted in to
control the event.
The Caesarian society has a tradition whereby any initiated member
can point at an invited male, or “Legionary” as they call it, keeping
with the Roman theme, and he must then down his drink.
There is no limit to the number of times this can be done to any one
individual, and it has been reported that many don’t make it much past
the end of the meal.
The Wyverns drinking society has a reputation for its hard partying and excessive drinking.
Its initiation ceremony involves eating a 15-course meal with
delicacies such as a pig’s snout with wasabi sauce and a pint of water
with a goldfish swimming inside.
