    does anyone else's teams do psychs where everyone on the team dresses up (ie ninjas or button-down shirt/tie)?
    our team does them almost every meet, although most of ours are kind of lame (i want some good ideas i can steal)

    haha...i guess not.
    to get excited for meets my team picks a theme to dress up as at school the day of or before a meet. for example, we might try and dress up as ninjas and wear all black, or dress up formally and wear ties. its usually fun, and you get to pass your teammates in the hall and feel silly.
    most of the teams at my school do it, but i guess we're just special.

    We once had an identity swap at practice one day - a guy and a girl were each paired up, and they had to take on the characteristics of the other. (And clothing too)

    My marathon team did that in middle school based on the theme of the race.
    For example, before a learning for life race, we tucked in our shirts and put our pants really high.
    This year the tradition kind of died

    ehh the guys on my team are lame and wouldn't do anything like that. Our basketball and volleyball teams dress up nice, and soccer guys usually get matching haircuts.

    But we are boring.

    For basketball and volleyball they have to dress nice for away games and some of the football players got crazy haircuts at the start of playoffs and then some of them bleached their hair before state.

    we have theme dinners during the season where we all go out to eat anddo stupid stuff dressed in themes. The best ones: spandex, ganster(mafia), gansta', safari(w/ underclassmen hunting), surfer, 70's, emo, prep, and crossdresser.
