[FWDLK] FL car in Animal House

[Jan & Roger van Hoy <vanhilla@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gosh, I'm by no means a movie buff, but distinctly remember the old 
abandoned frat house on the north side of East 11th in Eugene, Oregon just 
east of Patterson where some of the Delta House scenes were filmed.  Is it 
possible that both sets were used?

Now you've gone and made me want to rent the DVD to see!

The parade scenes were filmed in Cottage Grove, a few miles south of Eugene. 
You'll see Leo's Rexall which belonged to the father of a college era friend 
of mine's Dad.  He used to take his Dad's '65 Lincoln out to Dorena Lake in 
the summer and cut cookies on the dry lake bed, which is sort of ironic 
considering the movie, but I digress...
