  • Why did none of the other neighbors complain about parties every night?
  • Buying a house on a campus means accepting this, as with the frat houses around the University of Pennsylvania campus.
  • An anecdote: never in a frat, the speaker almost bought a house near Occidental College across from a sorority and drove by on weekend nights, haunted by this movie.
  • Occidental is described as a generic-looking campus used in pop culture, including 90210, and a good school.
  • Shooting fireworks into a cop car or the grill hitting a man would be felony assault with real jail time.
  • The title is too easy; The Frat Next Door is floated, Townies is judged wrong, and Chase the Night is suggested.
