Probates should be left to the NPHCs, you know, since we would just be jacking their swag. It originated with them, let's leave it there.
I personally don't get why some chapters are so eager to attempt what NPHC orgs do tradition-wise. Most of what NPC orgs take from NPHCs tends to just look dumb when they attempt it, not like you're paying homage at all. lol.

Especially since probating comes from our former pledge tradition and history. Much of what you see is a reflection of our former pledge process, so if you have no clue as to what was involved, you can't truly appreciate the probate. Now coming out shows (true coming out shows) are a different story although still a reflection of our pledge history.
