Students donned ’20s-style outfits and headed to Commons on Saturday night for the first Prohibition Party, hosted by Morse and Stiles colleges. Prohibition succeeds the famed Casino Night, which was canceled last year because of legal concerns. Casino Night, which traditionally featured roulette tables and gambling with fake chips, violated Connecticut’s Act to Repeal Las Vegas Night Games, enacted in 2003. Prohibition did wiithout the gambling, but included an open bar for students over the age of 21, a live jazz band and a DJ. Since, legend has it, Rolling Stone magazine supposedly once ranked Casino Night among the top 10 college parties in the country, many students had high expectations for Prohibition. Rainy weather and a $10 entrance fee may have deterred some from attending, but those that came out for the affair danced the night away in full flapper fashion.
