Is tickling commonly used as a hazing or inititiation ritual among men on sports teams or in frats?

I'm wondering if fraternities and sports teams that engage in hazing and initiation rituals commonly use excessive tickling of the pledge or new member's feet, armpits, chest or other sensitive areas as part of their routine. I heard that some frats do this and that they have a way of making the guy's skin more sensitive to touch...what would this be?
