Web site
Prior to 2011, Fruit Paunch's website has only contained the text "Someone owes me $20. -Cody". This message was posted by Cody Hess, SEAS '06, who was listed as their official webmaster and member of one other campus improv troupe, Klaritin. He claims that this was done in retribution for the group's failure to compensate him for his service as webmaster. According to members of Fruit Paunch, Cody never specified whether he wanted payment in cash or check, which is why he was not paid.
For the time being, the group's Columbia Web site is up and running.
