Urinegate, the Aftermath

Greg Lee and I swung by the Peeing Wall on our afternoon walk along the waterfront (aka the back wall of the North Idaho College museum). There were three evident large stains at the bottom of the dark-green wall, at approximately the area where WSU Greek fraternity and sorority members relieved themselves Saturday afternoon in plain view of the outdoor basketball courts and nearby picnic tables. Greg was sure that it was DNA evidence that would tie certain drunk frat rats and sorority sisters to public urination. I wasn't as sure. After all, it has rained. I'm surprised that the drunks made up the slopes to their outdoor toilets are that they didn't stumbled and fall down the incline. The police/fire substation is only feet away. And that's what it's like Living Here In Urinetown.
