Swedish Cultural Experience #72 (”Drunk high school graduates party on the backs of trucks as they drive through the streets of Stockholm”)

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omW7smvEXmU[/youtube]

Something called “Studenten” (the graduation party of Stockholm’s high schoolers).

It’s simple… hire a truck and fill it with:

- high school graduates

- music

- trees (wtf?)

- messages scrawled on sheets

- …plenty of alcohol.

Times that by 50 and have one big party, driving through the streets of Stockholm.

A very boggling sight.

Why didn’t we get to do this in Australia??
