Actually I've done a couple of those already told....so no use repeating...

but one I would like to pass on, was back when I lived in MN....

evidently it was started by a gag gift with a real bad pair of plaid pants with a family...

however that migrated into the pants being returned or given to someone new to the family thru marriage...

it was how it was returned or passed on that was funny...

it would be in the paper and on the nightly news right after Christmas....

I recall one year in particular, it was given to a family member but put in a Station Wagon from the boneyard
that had been crushed... and then encased in a cube of cement.. and then delivered to the recipients driveway
by a flatbed and a crane.....

each year, the recipient would "unwrap it" and then try to do a oneupmanship next Christmas...

this was back in the 80s, but it had been going on since the late 50s to early 60s...and involved rich folks with money...
