RT, short for "Russetiden" (The russ period)

whole party last 17 days, from may 1. to may 17. witch is the norwegian national day.
Russ: The seniors, dress up in red, blue or black and trousers drink themselves shitfaced on "russebusser" trying to execute "russeknuter" for seventeen days straight while still
in the middle of the exam period.
Russeknuter (Russ-knots): Spesial tasks the russ can execute in exchange for a "knot" to hang in their examination hat. About
one hundred official russeknuter is released for every school each year.
Examples of russeknuter to hang in your hat:
Kongla (The pinecone): Have sex outdoors during RT.
Ølkork (Beer cork): Drink 24 beers within 24 hours.
Champagnekork (A
champagne cork): Have safe sex with a representant from the russestyre (The russ parlament)
Every knot needs to have a neutral spotter for them to count.
Russebusser: Busses that groups of russ buy, and spend upwards of $300 000 on to party in during RT. The cost includes paintjobs, speakers, interior and a personal bus driver. Busses from all over the country gater at huge russ parties every weekend in the major cities of Norway during RT.
