While the IAC was a great thing, eventually it came to an end. The closing ceremony was similar to the last one, but the few new things was an official recognition of all the winners at the IAC Games, as well as a satirical spoof of the "Seven on Four Night" as well as how it would eventually become an urban legend.

The spoof of the Seven on Four night was basically an abridged, theatrical version of the The Hangover movies rewritten with some "help" from National Lampoon people, with the primary characters recast as females in accordance to the "Seven on Four Night". It finally ended with two average people seemingly watching it on television with one of them commenting, "Jack Daniels, I don't know whether to be impressed or disgusted."

Eventually, with the ending of the IAC came the inevitable cleanup. While the majority of the last cleanup crew was able to help out, they still had some help from the "Seven on Four" boys who still had community service to take care of.
"So what did you think of the Pi Eta Tau building?" asked one of the people who was helping out with trash pickup.
"It's alright." said Caiden, who had taken a pre-term tour of their new fraternity building. "While our old frat wasn't as bad as some would make it," (holes in the wall, rotting pizza, etc.) "Pi Eta Tau is much better and cleaner."
"I'm betting you found it a little surprising that there are condom dispensers on every major floor." said a second person.
"Just a little." answered Caiden.

Meanwhile the GGAC were heading home today with their coverage of the IAC Martial Arts Tournament and Showcase. It was a little surprising to see Shuixing finish as the overall winner of the competition, especially since Nate was there to cheer her on, though she might have gotten some "underdog points" that helped her out. Jerry did get second place in the overall tournament, while Liao got third.
Probably what was the funniest thing that they brought back was a collection of recordings of all the mess-ups, goofs, bloopers, etc. from said competition.
For example, after one preliminary drill, one of the judges commented, "Judging by your form and style, you are a participant in one of life's fiercest, and greatest, sports..." after a seemingly dramatic buildup, the judge finished the sentence to show that said participant had been eliminated from the competition, "channel surfing."

While the 2019 IAC was a great event, because it was a Biannual event, there were plenty looking to take a medal home at the next IAC and were taking the time between as a chance to really double down on training.
