It was OFF THE HOOK apparently.

You may recall a November 2003 incident where members of Sigma Alpha Epsilon were responsible for damages to a rental property in Sunriver, which they apologized for and made some restitution (e.g. community service, letters of apology, etc). Now the owners are suing the fraternity for $500,000. What’s really sad/amusing about the whole thing is the difference in tone between the information given to the property owners by SAE and what appeared on the frat’s website (note that according to the lawsuit, SAE said that only two couples and some children would stay at the home):

After the party, Crockett left the Brocks a note that read: “We had a wonderful weekend at your home. It was a peaceful relaxing weekend. Due to the rain and snow, some mud was tracked into your house. Children can be careless! We cleaned it as best we could. I apologize again, and hopefully we can stay here again next year.”

On Nov. 18, according to the lawsuit, the fraternity published on its official Web site, “Last weekend was the Sunriver trip … all I can say is it was OFF THE HOOK!”
