Gabe got his too......

It's a time honored tradition that happens in circles around the globe. An act where one accepts another into a group, a team, a fraternity, or even a high school. Earlier this evening a loud knock hit our front door and a male voice shouted out for Gabe to come outside. It's tradition for Davenport Central students to haze incoming students on the night before the first day of school. Gabe went outside, there wasn't 5 or 10 kids ready to afflict Gabe with some good old fashioned hazing......more like 50 kids, some football players, some show choir members, all running through our yard spraying shaving cream and dispensing toilet paper on our trees. It was truly an amazing site. Tiffany grabbed her camera to try and get a shot, I searched for Gabe. After 4 minutes someone shouted a command, and the group was off to the next victim. A stream of cars that totaled near 20 then headed down Farnam into the dark night. Then we spotted Gabe. Huddled alone underneath a tree in our yard. You could barely make him out. Covered in ketchup, mustard, shaving cream, chocolate syrup, eggs, rice, vinegar, mayo, various salad dressings and wrapped in saran wrap, stood Gabe. As soon as it had started, it ended, Gabe alone covered in all that muck shivering in the lawn. We then hosed him off with the garden hose, and Gabe took a hot shower. It was quite a laugh. Welcome to high school son, welcome!!!!!
