Old Boy Prep

The "Bro" of preps, this Prep is a good time seeking individual who drives fast, drinks fast but hunts slow ("Let's make a weekend out of it!") Ladies love him (his chauvinistic humor is funny and tolerable) and guys want to hunt with him. Mostly found in the South (though Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Massachusetts have their fair share) these boys love the outdoors; hunting, shooting, fishing, and bonfires (great on autumn nights with beer). Their mothers are Southern Belles and their fathers are corporate raiders or entrepreneurs. They live in faded Georgian homes with fox hunting prints on the walls and a gun dog sleeping by the fireplace. Old Boy Preps go to all boy boarding schools (years of male bonding and lacrosse help shape them to be great men). The Salisbury School, Woodberry Forest School, and Georgetown Preparatory are some of the schools the young men attend. For University, UVA, Harvard, Trintiy, UNC Chapel Hill, Wake Forest and Princeton are popular, but the king is Hampden-Sydney College. Located in Virginia, this school is all-male and is located in a rural area perfect for hunting and shooting (gentlemen are made here). Popular majors for Old Boy Preps are economics, finance, poly-sci and international relations. You can notice and Old Boy Prep by his clothes and accessories; Vineyard Vines everything, Sperrys, Barbour, croakies and needlepoint belts made by an ex-girlfriend. The Land Rover Defender is a popular choice, but if unattainable, the Range Rover and Chevy Tahoe are just as great. There is a time when a Old Boy Prep might get a F-150, but they get rid of it after a few years because they really don't need all that room to carry around golf clubs. Old Boy Preps like to off-road, whether it is the back entrance to their grandparents estate or at a point-to-point. Old Boy Preps love to hunt and shoot; nothing is as great as a Saturday morning stalking a stag. Barbour is still very big with preps and in order to differentiate themselves from trendy types (now buying Barbour) they leave their coats un-waxed and distressed with wear. There is always a contest going on during hunts on how many dead pheasants you can fit in the game pocket of your Beaufort. Fox hunting is becoming popular again, and Middleburg is the epicenter, so its easy for an Old Boy Prep to go down from Washington D.C. The Old Boy Prep is a testament that WASPs can still have fun and will continue to do so until the end of time.
