Purdue is known for some weird stuff. Long before I went there, they got a bit of early Internet “fame” as one of their professors posted videos of himself lighting a barbecue at one of the parks in Lafayette using Liquid Oxygen.
Eventually, so the story goes, the Fire Department told him to cut it out. You can still find pictures and video out there but most of it goes back to about 1995 or so and is very poor quality by today’s standards.
Would have been awesome to take my volleyball player friend Blake
to one of these cookouts except 1) We lived in Detroit then… 2) I was like 12… and 3) She wasn’t born yet...
