“This week the members of Arizona State’s Alpha Chi Omega sorority divided the internet. The young women dared to take selfies at an Arizona Diamondbacks game instead of focusing their full attention on baseball. Those selfies proved highly controversial for some dumb reason. The least amused was, no doubt, the Diamondbacks announcers who were incensed by youth.
But the women of Alpha Chi Omega are taking it in stride and using their newly-found internet fame to spread good vibes. The sorority sisters were offered free tickets to Thursday night’s game but declined, instead asking the Diamondbacks and Fox Sports to “provide tickets to a future game for families at A New Leaf, a local non-profit that helps support victims of domestic violence.”
