In recent years Tybee Island, Georgia has become the scene of a peculiar “native” ritual. Before the onslaught of the tourist season, this small Southern town by the sea designates one evening in May to allow its citizens to arm themselves with squirt guns, and buckets. As the afternoon sun sinks low curious newcomers and thrill-seeking locals line the streets with eager anticipation as the “Parade of the Beach Bums” comes sloshing down the main drag, and friends, neighbors, even perfect strangers, are all gleefully baptized into the first rites of summer.
