The fratmosphere is the aura that permeates the fraternity/sorority house,
party, and social event. Its use is not limited to just describing fraternity related functions and fraternity brothers are not uniquely talented in creating a fratmosphere.
An event where there is a fratmosphere is often characterized by
men and women dressing very much alike (possibly popped collars on the
men), the scent of the cheapest beers (
e.g.
PBR or The Beast), "hunch punch", and women posing in the "sorority squat" for photos.
"Dude, I went to this
party last night with some of my college buddies and we
hit the two-story beer bong just like old times... I'm not usually one to get that wild anymore, but I got sucked into the fratmosphere of the
party.
