My brother's best-friend's aunt was once witness to a mass hazing back in 1983. She was driving on route 66 just outside of Flagstaff, Arizona when she came to a half-mile stretch of road lined with reds, bending over with their asses pointed towards her car. When asked to repeat the story, she still breaks into tears. posted by Stretch at 5:39 AM on July 6, 2001
