UB Incidents
Throughout the years, there have been many incidents at UB, ranging from strange to bizarre.
Sizzles Incident
The Sizzles Incident is a notorious piece of UB campus lore involving an individual who allegedly entered a campus eatery completely naked while under the influence of hallucinogens. According to student accounts on Reddit and other forums, at some point in the early 2010s, a male student - reportedly high on LSD or psychedelic mushrooms - walked into Sizzles completely naked and attempted to order food. The bizarre spectacle was witnessed by other students, at least one of whom - user u/Shadow1787 on Reddit - claimed to have taken a photo of the incident.[1] In the retellings, the nude individual realizes the gravity of his actions only after the fact and was so mortified that he supposedly dropped out of school soon afterward.
The veracity of some details remains anecdotal, as no official campus police report or news article was publicly recorded for the event. However, on UB's subreddit, students frequently references the Sizzles incident, and the tale became so well-known that a parody Twitter account called "UB Naked Guy" even emerged, further entrenching the incident in campus folklore.[2]
