I've probably mentioned this before, but anyway...

"Animal House" was filmed at the University of Oregon, my alma mater. I passed the Delta House on my way to school each morning until they tore it down late in my Freshman year. I had multiple classes in the room where Donald Sutherland is lecturing about Milton. Basically, the whole film is a series of scenes set in spots I recognize instantly.

But the craziest one -- after graduation I was working as a TV news photographer in Eugene. We went to interview the university president in his office. I get set up, we're doing the interview, I pause and look around... and realize I'm in Dean Wormer's office. They actually let the film crew use the university president's real office and I was standing on the exact spot where the horse died.

I was a big fan of all those old Lampoon guys. Doug Kenney

I have no idea where to tell you to look, but if you can find the Doug Kenney memorial issue and they're not asking the equivalent of a house payment for it, grab it. The stories about Kenney are almost as funny as the stuff he'd written.
