Every CMU student knows that once the weather starts to get warmer, that means it's almost carnival. Whether you count down the days on a calendar or constantly refresh isitcarnivalyet.com, its one of the only weekends where grades and classes aren't spoken of, engineering is used to build small booths and we shove tiny girls into buggies and race them down hills. Along with all the traditions that come with each carnival, is the transformation of Carnegie Mellon University into Carnegie State, who knew we could darty so hard?? Give some CMU students sunshine and alcohol and you never know what you'll overhear...

1. "I was so excited to start drinking after finishing booth that I accidentally wore my hard hat and safety glasses to the pregame"

2. "Ted Cruz is the zodiac killer" *written on the roof a booth*

3. "I was showing my parents around my frat house and when I got to my room there were two girls asleep on my floor, my grandma was concerned"

4. "Everyone knows you're sloppy drunk if you go down the slip and slide at beta pavillion" *20 minutes later that girl went down the slip and slide*

5. Person 1: "Carnival was the best day of my life"
Person 2: "Um.. carnival is 4 days long"
Person 1: "That depends on if you choose to sleep or drink more"

6. *Large frat guy in a stroller chugging beer*
Concerned drunk girl: "I don't know a lot about babies, but aren't they not allowed to drink alcohol??"

7. "I hate hot dogs, but I've definitely eaten over 20 this weekend, good thing I don't remember any though"

8. "I think my body has developed an allergy to alcohol after this weekend, or maybe I'm just hungover?"

9. "I didn't have time to nap between daygers and night parties, so I asked a random alpha sig if I could use his bed during the party...without him"

10. "I want to go to Carnegie State all the time!!"
