Area naked butts on display (just not on Google Maps)
By adamg on Tue, 12/11/2007 - 3:46pm
The Somerville Journal pulls back the covers on the annual Naked Quad Run at Tufts, held last night (for all the nudity, not a whole lot to actually see, if you know what I mean, but probably something best viewed in the privacy of your own home):
The Naked Truth | NQR's history marred in rumor and conjecture - Tufts Daily makes it sound pretty boring.
That $5 offer for a naked butt or otherwise weird thing on Google Maps still outstanding.

A fraternity brother of mine
A fraternity brother of mine did the Quad Run while playing the bagpipes. Then there was the girl who was so preoccupied with yelling at her friends that she ran face-first into a no parking sign.
There at the beginning
Harry was there for the very first run and recalls it.
All in good fun
That's a LOT of butts out there, but what is with the folks in t-shirts and boxer shorts? Modesty or good taste?
That is a lot of skinny
That is a lot of skinny white people!!!
Tufts streakers to Somerville Journal: Butt out!
Go figure: Naked students don't like it when you video them.
Hmm, which Journal reporter has a beard?
a blazing streak of comments
That's the LiveJournal part of the discussion, but the real fun is in the newspaper article's own comment log. 47 and counting.
Israeli flag less pornographic than women with no tops on
Nice to see the Journal swapped out the back photo of the two cuties for some dude wrapped in an Israeli flag.
I'm still trying to figure out from all those comments how the video was "pornographic," because, like that Supreme Court justice, I know it when I see it, and this wasn't it. If anything, I was impressed how the reporter managed to film dozens of naked people without showing anything, um, interesting.
As for the "shock" of this appearing on YouTube, the Gatehouse papers do that with all their videos. It's a clever way of increasing access to their content while also furthering their brands. Has nothing to do with
drunkshocked college students.The Blue Streak Edition
The real question is, what are they going to print in tomorrow's dead-tree edition? So far, this is just an online article.
Goosebumps on Viagra
They probably could post some pics ... I don't think you could see much even if you were there as those kids must have "wanted a bigger one" to go out in that weather ... bigger goosebumps that is!
The women asked to have
The women asked to have their picture taken down. I think one may have been 17, too.
That said, I don't know why people were upset that their drunken streaking ended up on YouTube. I would be more likely to hire somebody who took calculated risks, but less so if they were whining about any consequences from taking said calculated risk.
Their beef is with Tufts for letting them on the property, not the Somerville Journal.
Brrrrr!!!
It's awfully cold at this time of year for that!! Not such a great idea in this cold weather, imo. One can get things like pleurisy and/or pneumonia by going naked or scantily clad in this kind of weather at this time of year.
I guess if you want everyone
I guess if you want everyone to see your shrinkage, that's your prerogative. Hope none of the participants runs for Congress one day.
