...John Harvard statue’s foot. Of course, no list of Harvard traditions would be complete without Harvard-Yale, the weekend before Thanksgiving when half of Yale’s (or Harvard’s) student body descends on its rival’s campus for drunken tailgates, wild parties and, if they can drag themselves as far as Soldier’s Field, the football game between the Crimson and the Elis...

After one last dawn campaign visit, a triple-witching photo op on the Iowa-Wisconsin-Minnesota border, Kerry flew back to Boston for his ritual Election Day lunch at the Union Oyster House. Superstitious, he wore his lucky Red Sox cap, carried an Ohio buckeye in one pocket and a clover in the other and refused to let his speechwriters work on election-night speeches of any flavor. But he wasn't relying entirely on voodoo. He spent the afternoon doing satellite...
