“Some of the players in the lawsuit said their pubic hair was removed with a blowtorch. Others said their penis was tied to a helmet or five-gallon bucket, which older players filled with hockey pucks.”
I just discarded my planned original post because I realized the profanities would probably get me banned from the site. What on earth is wrong with humans???
Note that the hazing allegations occurred several decades ago, in the 1980s and 1990s. I don’t think hazing is getting worse than in the past. I think it’s more that hazing is getting publicly reported more often… including to campus officials, lawsuits, and among news media.
