Coinciding with Serbia's Youth Day, for years Tito's birthday was celebrated in the former Yugoslavia by having relay runners carry a baton for weeks, which was then given to the leader on the 25th.
Poklapajući se s Danom mladosti, godinama se Titov rođendan proslavljao u bivšoj Jugoslaviji tako što su trkači tjednima nosili štafetu, koja je vođi uručivana 25. svibnja.
