WEBVTT ERIC: WHEN MOMS SEND THEIR BOYS TO COLLEGE. >> DO WE MEASURE IT OUT? ERIC: THEY CRINGE AT THE THOUGHT OF MEALTIME. BECAUSE MOST TEENAGERS ONLY HAVE ENOUGH UTENSILS TO BE DANGEROUS. NOT A CHEF IN TOWN WOULD USE A CORDLESS DRILL TO MIX PANCAKES. THEN AGAIN, THEY’D ACTUALLY USE EGGS. >> WE DON’T DO THAT. >> WE JUST WANT TO ADD WATER, THAT IS ALL WE NEED TO DO. ERIC: BUT MOST OF THOSE CHEFS? >> DUDE! DUDE! ERIC: DON’T HAVE FRIDAY NIGHT PLANS AS BIG, AS THE GUYS WHO LIVE IN AMES’ PANCAKE HOUSE. >> IT IS RIDICULOUS. ERIC: ONCE A MONTH, THEY FIRE UP OF CLASSMATES LOOKING FOR FREE FLAPJACKS, AT THEIR NOW INFAMOUS PANCAKE PARTIE >> COLLEGE STUDENTS WANT THE FREE. >> WE ARE FANS. ERIC: WHERE KIDS SWEAR THE MAIN COURSE IS FINE, BUT THE BLOCK PARTY, IS EVEN BETTER. >> THEY ARE MADE BY COLLEGE STUDENTS, SO YOU KNOW THEY ARE GOOD. ERIC: BECAUSE NEXT TO THE PANCAKE HOUSE, IS THE MUFFIN HOUSE’S DRINKING GAMES. AND NEXT TO THAT? ♪ ERIC: THE WAFFLE HOUSE’S DANCE PARTY PACKS IN 150. WHICH IS ALL FUN UNTIL THE COPS SHOW UP. DOUG OK, GUYS. >> HEY, HOW ARE YOU. ERIC: AND THEN THE WEIRDEST THING HAPPENS. NOTHING. >> WHEN WE SHOW UP, NORMALLY THERE ARE YOUR CANS BEING DROPPED AND KIDS RUNNING THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD. BUT HERE, EVERYBODY JUST SAYS . HI, ERIC: BECAUSE THOSE DRINKING GAMES? DON’T HAVE A DROP OF ALCOHOL. >> JUST HAVING THREE OR FOUR DAYS OF SUGAR IN ONE NIGHT. ERIC: NEITHER DOES THE DANCE FLOOR. >> WE DON’T HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST DRINKING, WE JUST CHOOSE NOT TO. IT IS JUST OUR CHOICE AND WHAT WE FEEL IS RIGHT. ERIC: BUT FRIDAY NIGHT’S BEACH THEME FEATURING HUMAN HAMMOCKS , STILL DREW 400 PEOPLE. WHO KNOW PLENTY THINK A COLLEGE PARTY WITHOUT BOOZE IS A WASTE OF A PARTY. >> IT IS OK. WE HAVE FUN, THAT IS WHAT REALLY MATTERS. ERIC: 70 POUNDS OF BATTER WON’T END BINGE DRINKING. >> THE DRILL IS RECHARGING RIGHT NOW. ERIC: BUT CAN IT PROVE FRIENDSHIPS FORMED AROUND GRIDDLES ARE JUST AS STRONG AS THOSE AROUND KEGS? [APPLAUSE]
