Bristol’s Biggest BNOCs: Submit your nominees for the 2018 competition now
Who is the Biggest Name on Campus?
James HealeDo you bring the women and the cars and the cards out? Are you best in the scene? Probably not. But you might know someone who is.
The anticipation is over. The competition you've all been waiting for has finally arrived and it's ready to massage/shatter the egos of Bristolians from all over the land. We’re looking for the maddest fresher, the legendary fourth year, the Bunker Monday seshmonster who’s done something crazy, the person who walks on the U1 and you just know their night is going to be ten times better than yours will be.
The Top 25 nominations will then be published for you to vote for and the Bristol student with the most votes will receive the most sought after title of them all – BNOC 2018.
>>>To get nominating, fill out this anonymous form here<<<
Were they a Clicendales superstar? Nominate them
Who should I nominate?
Is your friend the biggest sports nut you know, spending half their time at Coombe Dingle and the other half gazeboed beyond recognition on Sports Night? Nominate them.
Does your friend spend half their money on Cirque tickets, practically live in Motion and regale you with tales about how 'honestly mate I was popping pills like M&Ms'? Nominate them.
Is your friend out three times a week, act like they're bestie with the Bunker/Lolas/Pam Pam bouncers and spend their evenings trawling the smoking area whilst adding everyone they meet on FB? Nominate them.
Are they a queen bee or a wanna be? A sycophant or a somebody? A ket addled kleptomaniac or a sex crazed second year? Nominate them.
Be like this guy, he's probably a BNOC
