One Owl boy was spotted somersaulting into porta-potties—one flew open, revealing a bemused middle-aged man. For the first time since 1879, the Porcellian tailgate (which came complete with a dead pig!) was THE place to be. At the Kirkland tailgate, an ’09er deliberately exposed himself to everyone’s favorite sex blogger. Impossible is nothing, literally.
