Fuel up the car and stock up on beef jerky and trail mix, it's road trip time. Playboy has announced their Top Party Schools for 2009.
Using a highly elaborate algorithm (they can do math over at Playboy?), that takes into account campus life, sports, brains, sex, and the always popular Bikini Index, they've compiled a list of the 25 biggest party schools in the nation. Or as we call it, the Vacation Planner.
Scoring highest this year is The U, the
University of Miami, with an incredible 89 out of a possible 100. And the only school to score a perfect 20 on the Bikini Index. (I'm signing up for grad classes.)
Second place
University of Texas-Austin scores a 79 and gets props for "bikini parties that morph into women dancing half-naked."
Third is
San Diego State with their unofficial motto, "Study hard, party harder." Amen.
Rounding out the top five are
University of Florida and
University of Arizona. Seems the hotter the weather, the hotter the women and parties.
The rest of the top 10 are:
6.
University of Wisconsin (The center of the beer universe.)
7.
University of Georgia (Southern belles know how to party.)
8.
Louisiana State University (Laissez les bon temps roulez.)
9.
University of Iowa (Party... or stare at cornfields.)
10.
West Virginia University (Where every party is like a family reunion.)

SUNY Albany, hung on at #25 for our "epic parties." Glad to see some things haven't changed.)
