I am a former St. Ben's student - there was a good deal of animosity between the college students and "townies" when I was there. The La Playette (popular local bar in St. Joseph) would have a mix of students and townies, and fights often broke out. I wonder if anyone looked in to local troublemakers. I'm sure there were some who would love to see the Johnnys embarrassed and taken down a peg.
