I won.
This inlaw type who went to Cornell was trying to tell me that his fraternity in the 50s was much crazier than I could possibly imagine.
Him: One time, we had beer left in a keg, so we put it in this barn to keep it cold.
Me (thinking, not speaking): So, your big crazy frat story begins with you not finishing a keg?
Him: In the morning, the keg had leaked, and it was empty.
Me (thinking, not speaking): So, your big crazy frat story ends with you having wasted beer?
Me (speaking, not thinking): We used to lock ourselves in a room, and nobody was allowed to leave until three kegs were empty. Then, we'd play Donkey Kong on the stairs.
Him: Donkey Kong?
Me: Yeah. One of us would run up the stairs and try to jump over the keg that someone else threw down the stairs.
Some other cousin type or something: Were you actually able to jump over the kegs?
Me: Not really.... (thinking for a sec).... basically, we got drunk and threw kegs at each other.
To put things in perspective. This wasn't a generational pissing contest, it was more or a SU vs. Cornell. Why? Because when we used to swap stories with the guys who went to our school in the 50s, they used to beat us story for story.

Those were the days, beer guzzling, and pissing contest. Oh, and let us not forget praying to the toilet god.

Haha, that's pretty amusing. And painful, I imagine!
