*** OFFICIAL VEISHEA WEEK 2014 THREAD ***

[cy4prez7]

I've heard that he's still alive so I'm hoping that you're wrong.

 

[RING4CY]

Where is that coming from?

I'm wondering this as well. I'm seeing unconfirmed tweets saying the complete opposite.

 

[CysRage]

Supposedly the kid who was hit by the lightpole didn't make it and has passed away. Just complete sadness right now over this whole night.

Awful..just awful.

 

[alarson]

what are the actual chances they cancel veishea over this? pretty slim. Couldn't go out til wednesday so I hope theirs no way they can cancel some stuff. didn't think things would escalate this quickly since it's ******* tuesday...

They cancelled veishea in 2005 after the 04 riot. The pictures and video here seem every bit as destructive.

The fact its on a tuesday really confuses me. I mean seriously.

I thought Thursday would be the soonest a riot could break out due to mug night but not likely because all the out of towners aren't there yet. The fact it happened on a Tuesday is asinine.

Update (sort of): I'm guessing the word going around that he's dead was sparked by this video/the guy in the video. I'm putting my money on that he's just unconscious (sure as hell hope that's the case). Video was posted by the Daily.

Im gonna be pretty unhappy if this does result in a cancellation again though. Just as much for students, veishea is a time of year that a lot of alums have a good chance to set a date to come back and meet up.

At least the spring game\cys house of trivia arent officially connected to veishea so those, though usually falling on veishea, should still continue to happen.

Yeah, veishea 'week' usually doesnt start really rolling until thursday at the earliest, but really friday.

 

[ISUCY23]

Apparently people are starting fights and attempting to tear down stop signs on Hyland and Welch.

 

[ISUCubswin]

Commander said student was breathing but unconscious.

 

[ISUCyclones2015]

Well I was just standing around watching it all. Stupid stupid stupid.

Exactly. I'm only a year out of school but I'm planning on meeting with guys that graduated before me this weekend. I'm going to be ****** if its cancelled for next year because stupid immature current students don't know how to have fun without being idiots.

Any idea what condition Mary Greeley is in right now? Friend of a friend was punched in the head, and was bleeding. Don't know how severe it was. Told him that they should probably get over there and looked at, as head injuries aren't anything to leave alone. Do you think that's necessary?

Yes he should go. Also, they have a medical staff at Hilton special for VEISHEA

Absolutely necessary. Check for concussion or even fracture.

 

[ZachsterPoke]

Where is the word that Hilton is being used as a medical station? And is it just a staging area for the medical staff, or are they allowing people to walk in?

I read it in a tweet. Travis Hines I think? He's with the Ames Trib but idk if they allow walk ins

Yeah. I wasn't seeing anything about it, so I told him to just go to Mary Greeley.

EDIT: From what Travis Hines said:

"Medical staging at Hilton"

Sounds like that was to just get the guy needing airlifting out of there.

Pretty high quality video the Daily took of the car flip. Hopefully they can identify some of the people....

If the police can't ID the people from this video, they can definitely ID the blonde who recorded the faces of 3-4 guys who screamed in her camera when they did it. I hope these a**holes get caught. They are destroying VEISHEA.

That should be ok, the scanner is pretty quiet and has been for a while. Most of the medical alerts were passed out drunk people. Serious injury went to DM.
