4:08

4:08 is irrefutably the greatest TiP tradition of all time.

In the late 90's, a group of friends at East (I and II) threw a party for exactly one minute every day at the perfect and most reasonable time - 4:08 PM. 4:08 gave them just enough time to leave class, put their stuff away in their rooms and make it back to the Circle Quad, where they would do cartwheels, build human pyramids, throw dance parties, and more.

4:08 lasted a few brief years, and as its main proponents aged out, it too faded into TiP past.
