AU to be Site of Animal House Remake!!!

'Big' Sam in starring role!

Hollywood has decided to use AU as its site for a remake of "National Lampoon's Animal House." Rumors are also circulating that "Big Sam" Gilman, former SC presidential candidate, will be asked to play the role of John "Bluto" Blutarsky. To achieve success in this role, Gilman will have to channel his inner Belushi.

Although not confirmed, there are rumors that AU President Len Badner will play Dean Vernon Wormer, the character who tries to expel the Deltas from their house.

In another rumor, "Girls Gone Wild" women will be brought in as extras for shooting party scenes.

The Farrelly Brothers are set to direct AU's "Animal House" remake. Previous movies by the Farrelly brothers include "There's Something About Mary," "Shallow Hal" and "Me, Myself and Irene."

As a gift for allowing Hollywood to experience AU as it films the movie, producers, directors, and camera men plan to give AU fraternities, sororities, and clubs a year's supply of alcohol - for drinking off-campus, of course!
