Taylor University's Silent Night Tradition

College Sports have many great traditions throughout out all sports, but there is one, a tradition from Taylor University that has to be one of the coolest ones I've ever seen.

On the Friday before finals week, everyone gets all dressed up in pajamas and heads out the the Taylor U basketball game.  At the game, they stay dead silent, no cheering, or whatever.  But once the 10th point is scored for the home team, the crown explodes.  It's amazing to see.  Here's a video!




How cool is that, eh?  Man, that looks like a blast. Plus afterwards they go to a Christmas party and the President reads a Christmas Story, and they eat cookies and Santa is there, and all that jazz.  It seems like a nice thing for the students to break the ice and the tension before finals week.  I thought this was one of the neatest things I've seen.  Hope you enjoy it.
