Fun Fact

History: Poly Royal Sunday Barbecue

Founding Father Jack Hennessy shares this tale.
In 1955–1957, when the fraternity was just getting started, we began a tradition that seems to have survived for over 60 years: the Poly Royal Sunday Barbecue.
In 1955 we had just started when Poly Royal weekend was staring us in the face. We decided to make this our first social event. And we figured we’d better invite some important people, particularly people with money. So we invited our parents, so we could show them what kind of thing their idiot children we’re getting involved in. We also invited our pledges and their parents. Dates were of course also invited.
Eric, whose methods we never questioned because his motives were always pure, somehow arranged with the Cal Poly beef unit to obtain a hind quarter of beef, carved up into individual serving size steaks, plus a few extra pounds of hamburger, for something around 25 cents per pound. We raided the house manager’s budget to buy French bread, salad ingredients and beans and recruited some chefs from among the membership and pledges.
On Sunday, we went to a local park here in San Luis Obispo that we had previously scouted for tables and barbecue capability. I believe Eric came up with the briquettes, and we had a lovely barbecue of steak, salad, beans and garlic bread. The parents loved it and we sold the leftover steaks to them for two dollars a piece and payed back the house managers budget and gave him the hamburger. The rest of the money went into the fraternity treasury.
During my tenure as an active member, we did this twice more, again with our parents as featured guests, and with similar results.
