Basically, back in college, my anime club had a rivalry with the Christian club. For the longest time, they would call us 'sinners' and 'blasphemers' because of our interests and we shrug them off. One day, they switched presidents. Instead of their usual routine, they this guy wanted to try to be more friendly towards us in an attempt to convert us and invited us to a joint anime/christian club bowling event. A lot of my friends, who were just plain sick of them pestering us, decided to mess with them a little. My friend Eric, went, posing as a drunk. Two other members, Edward and a guy we call 'Kuno', dressed in drag, posing as a gay couple. My friend Mike, went to the event wearing devil horns and wielding a plastic pitchfork. Lastly, my friend, Ivan, came to the event using the name "The Sex Offender."
During the event, whenever Edward or Kuno bowled a strike, the other would get up with them, and they'd start freaking each other, while the club stayed away from my friend Ivan. Later on, Eric began acting sick. My friend, Adrian, asked Edward to get him some water. A few minutes later, Edward comes back with a clear liquid, to which Adrian shouts, "I said 'water' not vodka!" Edward replies in a very effeminate tone, "Oh, its all the same!" There were two other members of the anime club that just went, one of which was Mormon and the christian club spent most of the evening trying to convert those two instead.
The entire event was videotaped, but after so many years, the tape has been long lost.
That reminds me of the "rivalry" that was going between my college club and one of the Christian groups. In reality though, it was just unfortunate placement. For part of one year, the room we were in was right next to the ballroom where the Christian group was. Their band would start practicing/sound testing right in the middle of our meeting, which made it hard to hear the animu.
We ended up moving our meetings to the next floor up (and on the opposite side of the building), but eventually they moved into the banquet hall right across the hall. I think this went off and on for 2 (school) years.
Also, one year the anime club shared an office with a sorority. I never really had much business in the club office, so I didn't get to see if many lulz ensued. However, there was one time when the sorority offered to participate in a mixer. I dunno if they just left it to us to organize or what...but instead of bowling, non-anime movie, or something along those lines, we ended up putting together a video game night (mostly Wii sports and Warioware smooth moves.) It wasn't a total bust, but as one might expect...there wasn't exactly a whole lot of mixing (and not a lot of people from either group showed up.)
