Get ya Crosby's on Cuz!

Peer pressure is taking on new meaning in Auckland schools as the fad to wearing slippers to school gains momentum, reports a leading newspaper.
According to the New Zealand Herald the latest fad among Auckland schoolboys is wearing household slippers to school.
The paper reports the boys are shrugging off the risk of punishment by not wearing regulation shoes.
The boys are using excuses, including having left their shoes in the car, or that they broke, when trying to justify the odd choice of footwear.
How the trend began is uncertain, but it may have started by rapper Snoop Dogg, who has been photographed in public wearing the slippers and wore them to a magazine interview last year.
One teacher said banning the slippers was impractical because so many students were choosing to wear them.
"Snoop's done it, and now everyone wants to, and we can't end up sending 20 kids home each day," she told the paper.
