Sorry Ridgewood. That’s a time honored tradition in American schools, both high school and college. Deal with it.
You know how brutal those clothe covered cap edges can be...wow what a wuss. Can he walk with the sun behind him for fear of his shadow?
You and me agree on that, but unfortunately for us, it’s a brave new stupid world. Heard this discussed on a talk show today, and while the hosts initially took the side of tradition, a lot of callers pointed out that the problem is not the kids who toss their caps in the air, but the stupid yay-hoos who frisbee them at other people, or out into the crowd. One guy said he got a scratched cornea being beaned by a spinning cap. The tradition would be fine if the kids all respected it, but, well, you know the era we’re living in. FReegards.
I think they still do it .... some 50 years later.
