I have some more pictures, i will post later today.
Just to explain the whole tradition more detailed: When danish students graduate they party for like a week, with their schoolmates. The bars and clubs offers them discount on drinks, entrance etc, it's one week of drunkenness.
One, sometimes two of the days, the students from each class, go on a trip to the parents homes, one by one, to get alcohol and food, and to let the parents celebrate their kids and their classmates. They drive in these styled open antique wagons, on special permits from the police, with loud music and party for the joy of bypassers.
The students normal do the wave tradition 2 times. One where they go in the fountain in daylight, while they are on their wagon tour, often when snapped by photographers from the newspapers, and with a big audience so they keep their underwear on. And then in the night, when drunk, naked, in the ocean or in lakes. Hard to find good pictures of this. Have to rely on Instagram and spying dudes.
The reason for the different colors of hats is because there's 4 different educations that get these, but they are all high schools. Red = STX (Normal student examination), Royal blue = HHX (Higher business examination), Navy blue = HTX (Higher tech examination), Light blue = HF (Shorter higher preparation examination)
