The name took and in 1984, Sigma Phi Epsilon introduced the first Gruff Sparty.

Ope/əʊp/ (Interjection): The way a Michigander acknowledges another person or thing that they have encountered.
Ope! Sorry I bumped into you! Ope, we both grabbed for the door at the same time. Ope! I missed my bus!
You know you’re from the Midwest if each time you almost close a door on someone, miss setting the hook on a fish, drop change at the register, bump into someone at Meijer and instead of saying sorry we say ope!
So, don’t be sorry and let this design do the talking for you, Ope!
