Canadian Football League spokesman Shawn Lackie called streaking the “flavour of the day,” but added it's not a growing problem.
By February 1974, a fad labeled “streaking” had crystalized on scores of college, and even some high school, campuses across the United States.
The fad began with a lone male running naked across the Florida State University campus several weeks ago. Students on other campuses began streaking in pairs, then groups, and were joined by some coeds. Then it became a numbers game for the “national streaking title.”
