Thr MLB was so concerned about the relatively harmless tradition of rookies sometimes having to dress in female costumes on one day each year that they banned the practice. Meanwhile, the NFL mostly looks the other way when it comes to the crazy hazing that happens in their league. Richie Incognito's infamous harassment of Jonathan Martin on the Miami Dolphins is an extreme example, but there are plenty of other bad things that happen to players.

Rookies may have to get horrible haircuts, including having their hair shaved into the shape of a penis, as the Jacksonville Jaguars did in 2010. Then there are costlier indignities that rookies might suffer, including getting stuck with five-figure restaurant and bar tabs, like what happened to Houston Texans rookie K. J. Dillion in 2016. He went to dinner with members of the team and only ordered a $13 Caesar salad. He had to pay the $16,255.20 tab, which didn't include the tip. That's what also happened to Dallas Cowboys star Dez Bryant, who refused to carry Roy Williams' shoulder pads in 2010 when he was a rookie. Williams extracted revenge by making him pay $54,896 for the offensive line's dinner bill.

What sometimes happens in hazing is that those who were tortured go after the next generation. Happily, Bryant told TMZ in 2016 that they don't do such hazing in Dallas anymore. (Of course, he doesn't do anything in Dallas anymore.)
