Over-Yodeled

1993: A German court ordered that a couple deserved a partial refund of the cost of their two-week Caribbean cruise, since the cruise company hadn't warned them beforehand that 500 of the 600 passengers on the cruise would be Swiss yodelers, who would be practicing their yodels constantly.

In college, several hundred of us from some fraternities & sororities went on a cruise ship to Nassau during spring break. Of course, we proceeded to follow the drunken rites of spring, running around wildly, sleeping mostly naked on the deck at nite, etc. I remember some of the regular adult passengers looking pretty disgusted with the insanity. I wonder if they sued the cruise line.
