Butt chugging?' Alcohol enema prompts investigation of Pi Kappa Alpha house

As medical personnel treated a University of Tennessee student for severe alcohol poisoning from a bizarre consumption method, UT police walked into a drunken scene at a campus fraternity, records show.

Officers early Saturday found several young men at the Pi Kappa Alpha house, 1820 Fraternity Park Drive, passed out in their rooms “and bags from wine boxes, some empty and some partially empty, strewn across the halls and rooms.”

Authorities think Alexander P. Broughton, 20, of Memphis, who had a blood-alcohol level thought to be “well over” 0.40 percent, ingested the alcohol by a method known as “butt chugging,” in which wine was inserted directly by a tube into his rectum for quick and potent absorption.

On Monday, Pi Kappa Alpha’s UT chapter was administratively suspended for 30 days by Pi Kappa Alpha International, pending a decision regarding its permanent status, according to a statement from UT spokeswoman Karen Ann Simsen.

UTPD is leading an investigation into the incident. Knoxville police are assisting as needed, according to Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk.
No criminal charges have been filed, although UTPD officers issued a number of citations early Saturday to young men at the fraternity, according to police records.
The suspension will remain in place while campus police investigate.

UT officers responded about 1:30 a.m. Saturday to the University of Tennessee Medical Center emergency room after an unresponsive Broughton was brought in by several young men, according to a UTPD incident report.

The victim appeared to be “extremely intoxicated and showed signs of physical and possible sexual assault,” the report states.

Investigators determined Broughton had received the alcohol enema at the Pike house. Broughton later was transferred to the hospital’s critical care unit.

By Monday night he was no longer listed as a patient at the hospital, according to a nursing supervisor.

Police determined other students at the Pike house had engaged in a similar form of alcohol consumption.

“Upon extensive questioning it is believed that members of the fraternity were using rubber tubing inserted into their rectums as a conduit for alcohol as the abundance of capillaries and blood vessels present greatly heightens the level and speed of the alcohol entering the blood stream as it bypasses the filtering by the liver,” DeBusk stated in a news release Monday.

The fraternity’s UT chapter previously was suspended for two weeks after three pledges were hospitalized following a January 2008 hazing incident. A family member told the News Sentinel that the students had developed staph infections after being made to do exercises on a bathroom floor.

The father of the victim, Mark Broughton, said his family is now launching its own investigation in an effort to correct "significantly erroneous" information released by police.

Ahh... who says that a college education isn't a good investment?

I suppose this practice might be old news, but I had never heard of it before.

Wow, if UT was doing this, what did UVA have to be doing to get #1 Party school on Playboy's most recent list?

I'm with you Jules... its news to me too. Unbelievable.

Ugh .... who in the hell would give themselves a wine enema?

I just hope they don't share the tube......

Ewww...

This type of thing was on 1000 ways to die a few years ago. It was the first I had heard of it.

I thought that part of the fun of getting drunk was to enjoy the social aspect of some beers.. maybe some music and dancing... not dump it in your butt so you can get wasted in a matter of seconds.

No matter how you do it, in the end you're wasted. It makes you wonder how these kids were reared. 3 of them ended up in the hospital? That wine really rectum. They probably assumed it wouldn't be that dangerous.

Hopefully they learned their lesson in the end. I hope the one guy doesn't turn into a bum.

Rectum? Damn near killed him.

Pretty disturbing, but it could of been worse. From the headlines I thought they were doing a really gross beer bong.

Sounds like the sort of thing that Bartolo Colon would do.

I thought he was more the turn the other cheek kind of guy.

Your thinking of Colon Powell in his early wilder military days.

Kinda brings new meaning to taking a dump...

pouring alcohol in your butt...cant say id want to get drunk that badly that I would want to ever do that. Especially when you can get drunk by tasting it and pouring it down your throat...

ridiculousness

I guess you could call them party poopers.

I guess they are going to have to invent a fartalizer.

"Assume the position... drop your pants, hands on your head, lean against the car and fart into the machine please"

Those found to have a blood alcohol level above .08 will be taken into colostomy.

The one positive thing you can say about these morons is not one of them was full of ****.

That's just anal !

i guess it brings more new meaning to when you call someone your drunkass friend

Talk about a butt load of alcohol!

Oh boy.. I guess that gives new meaning to BFF

They have speed dating and now they have speed partying. The next thing you know they will be speed living.
Oh wait they already expect everything all at once, including a SB Champion

Who expects everything at once?

This has been around for years. Heck I worked with a guy over 20 years ago that did this a few times a day at work so he could stay drunk all day and nobody would be able to smell it on his breath. As for me no thanks I will keep the exit only signed posted over my butt cheeks.

Is there enough room next to the wind tunnel sign?

Maybe
