Every 5 Years The Same Photo

July 29, 2012 — Leave a comment

It’s a classic story of some true bro’s.

In 1982, five guy friends had their photo taken together while vacationing at a Copco Lake cabin in California. In 1987, they started a tradition where every five years they photograph themselves together in the same pose on the same deck railing at that cabin, modeled after a photo taken in 1982.

Little did they know they would still be honoring the tradition 30 years later.

Check out their full story at CNN:

“As the ritual became more concrete and when digital cameras were introduced, the group became more picky over the details of the photo, going as far as to wear the same clothes, and designate an official jar and hat as props. Hairstyles have changed over the years and with the march of time they abandoned the bare-chested motif.”

Here are the pictures the five guys who took a photo every five years for thirty years at the same place:
