SUDS ON SUDS ON SUDS

As a child, most of us avoid a bath at all cost. Soap was that annoying thing that got in your eyes and burned. Unless, of course, you used the cool fish-shaped bottle of L’Oreal Kids no tears soap. In college this is not the case.

Something about the combination of soap, suds and music draws every college student in. These three things make up what is called a foam party. What is better than dancing around with 1500 of your friends in soap and bubbles? Nothing. Luckily, OU’s Union Programming Board hosts a foam party every year that is FREE for all students.

But the foam party is so much more than dancing and having a good time. There are practical benefits from attending. You could use the foam party as an excuse not to shower for the next three days because being in soap for 3+ hours is like one long shower you don’t have to pay for. You could use it as your yearly Chaco or Sperry cleaning. I personally love foam party because my Chacos look AND smell brand new when I leave. Rumor has it that foam party has the same effect on Sperry’s. You could use it as a way to clean your clothes. Just rinse them out afterword and you have successfully avoided doing laundry for a while longer.

Those are only a few of the beneficial side effects of attending foam party. Foam party is now at the end of the first week of classes so you can wash away all the stress of the week while dancing your heart out. It lets you get dirty while getting clean. It’s the good, clean fun to have on campus.
