University of Nottingham, ofc. The University of Nottingham students are green and gold and PROUD.\u00a0Of course\u00a0they are. The University of Nottingham is a fantastic and unique university experience.\u00a0Unique\u00a0you say? How?\u00a0Well,\u00a0let me tell you. Check out these 20 signs that you go to the University of Nottingham and see for yourself what makes Nottingham special and different. And, of course, the best\u00a0uni\u00a0ever.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Na\u00a0na\u00a0na\u00a0na\u00a0na\u00a0na\u00a0Batman!<\/h2>\n<p>That\u2019s right, in Wollaton deer park merely just\u00a0opposite\u00a0uni\u00a0park, is Wollaton hall. The hall was used in the recent Batman movies with Christian Bale. Plus\u00a0inside there is a load of creepy and cool taxidermy. Make sure you check it out. A sign you went to the University of Nottingham is that you made the clamber up the hill to see Batman\u2019s house and got a cheeky pic.<\/p>\n<h2>2. The cult<\/h2>\n<p>Ocean every Friday. You know the score. You\u2019ve also purchased and actually wear the hideous yellow ocean shirts. I told you it was a cult.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Lenton hub<\/h2>\n<p>A sign you went to the University of Nottingham is that you must have at one point lived in Lenton. If\u00a0not\u00a0you must have been to a\u00a0house party\u00a0there. Lenton is home and heart for UON students.<\/p>\n<h2>4.\u00a0Drive by<\/h2>\n<p>If you do live in Lenton and have a car, you\u2019ve definitely played a lot of running games from the parking officer.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Cash money<\/h2>\n<p>You know that the Lenton Sainos\u00a0is \u201cone of the most expensive in the UK\u201d but you still go in there at least once a day&#8230;<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center\">\n<\/h6>\n<h2>6. Have a good stein<\/h2>\n<p>A relatively new addition to Notts, but making big waves is the\u00a0Nottingham\u00a0Bierkeller. A pic with a beer as big as your face is a sign you go to the university of Nottingham.<\/p>\n<h2>7. Que for it<\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;ve spent a lot of your time estimating the queue size of Ocean and Crisis every week. Trying to work out the perfect time to call and Uber when you don\u2019t have a ticket.<\/p>\n<h2>8. Domin-hoes<\/h2>\n<p>Eat, sleep, breathe dominoes. Mainly because of the\u00a0frequent\u00a0deals. Mostly because they\u00a0deliver to campus and Lenton.<\/p>\n<h2>9. B e a utiful<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019ve definitely had a picture in one of the rowing boats on the lake. Probably in front of the Trent building.\u00a0Let&#8217;s be honest, a sign you go to UON is that you recognise how beautiful, picturesque and picture perfect the campus is.<\/p>\n<h2>10. Diss is great<\/h2>\n<p>UON students are famous for their Instagram\u00a0dissertation photos with many \u201cdiss\u201d themed puns.\u00a0Again\u00a0in\u00a0front of the beaut Trent building is a popular one. #dissistrue<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center\">\n<\/h6>\n<h2>11. Luvyababes<\/h2>\n<p>The only shop you frequently go to in Notts.\u00a0For all those\u00a0fancy dress\u00a0occasion. UON students dress up a lot. And\u00a0Luvyababes\u00a0is the only store for it.<\/p>\n<h2>12. Rivals<\/h2>\n<p>UON students have a long and historical rivalry with Nottingham Trent University, especially at varsity. Green and gold vs. the pinks. Many a chant has been shouted. But UON student&#8217;s dirty little secret is that they love Trent SU on a Saturday&#8230; shhhh.<\/p>\n<h2>13. Rulers of the land<\/h2>\n<p>The geese own the campus. A\u00a0run in\u00a0with the geese, or goose poo, is a definite sign you go to the University of Nottingham. But they always look so nice on the\u00a0uni Instagram&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>14. All carbs<\/h2>\n<p>Catered halls \u201cpotato theme night\u201d notorious and you know about it.<\/p>\n<h2>15. Urban legends<\/h2>\n<p>These are passed down every year&#8230; you know what Rutland\u00a0rhymes\u00a0with&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>16. Cock Soc<\/h2>\n<p>If you go to UON you\u2019ve had a pic in front\u00a0of the \u201ccock\u201d in the \u201ccock soc\u201d sign, don\u2019t be shy now you saucy\u00a0minxes.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center\">\n<\/h6>\n<h2>17. Buy\/Sell<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019re in it. You\u2019ve hopefully seen the video of that time the guy tried to eat 100 chicken nuggets&#8230;\u00a0it\u2019s full\u00a0of some right gems.<\/p>\n<h2>18. Blue Bells<\/h2>\n<p>One\u00a0pint of Jager\u00a0please. Christ. Only \u00a35 too.<\/p>\n<h2>19. Berti<\/h2>\n<p>Hallward\u2019s cat. There to cheer you up as you head into the library to revise. A\u00a0celebrity\u00a0on campus.<\/p>\n<h2>20. Mans is hot<\/h2>\n<p>Possibly the best place to eat on campus&#8230;? Claims. A sign you\u2019re a UON student is that you\u2019ve sat hungover, sweating and waiting for your number to come up on the board. Tasty.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a UON student, how many of these applied to you? More than one we imagine!<\/p>\n<h5>Let us know if you can relate and what are some other signs you go to University of Nottingham in the comments!<\/h5>\n<h6>Featured Image Source:\u00a0https:\/\/www.arup.com\/projects\/jubilee-campus-university-of-nottingham<\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What\u2019s the greatest University in world?
