The 120th annual hoop-rolling race at Wellesley College takes place Saturday at 9am. If you’ve never seen this local tradition live, it’s worth a look, as seniors dressed in gowns spin their wooden hoops down Tupelo Lane on campus.
The most eager and crazy students even sleep out overnight for a chance to win the race and get tossed into Lake Waban.

Actually, maybe the craziest are the ones who combine hoop-rolling and marathoning.
