Haters have taken over the #Bamarush and #Alabamarush hashtags — both hubs for University of Alabama co-eds to submit sorority pledge tryout videos — in order to parody accents, attire and attitudes on full display by actual sister wannabes.

In just three days, the combined hashtags have together topped 26 million views.
