About the only things I remember about Animal House are the yellow MGA (Not an original MGA color, but then neither is mine) and the cow that they led upstairs and shot.
I don't recall a yellow MGA and it was a horse that met its untimely demise.

But what do I know? :nana

It's in two scenes, one about 35 minutes into the movie and again around the 85-minute mark, where Mandy Pepperidge is unsuccessfully trying to give Greg Marmalard a hand-job at the local make-out point. It also shows up in the background as set dressing when filming the Omega house.

Here's a link to a movie car message board that confirms it as a 1959 MGA — https://www.imcdb.org/v011062.html

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Oh yeah, now I remember.

(That's a movie quote btw)

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

Hey, it's a 40 year old memory. I'm pretty sure about the yellow MGA, but you're probably right about the horse. I'll have to watch it again before I reach my 100th birthday.

I'm also pretty sure it was a cow my BIL's father in law's friends used in his story. Cattle would have been easily accessible at Kansas State University.

I think wes was just repeating a question he's been asked regularly while spending alone time with a member of the opposite sex... 8-)

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
