Boxing Day

After taking a look at Wikipedia's Boxing Day entry, I'm still not exactly clear on what it is. I mean, do people just hang out, grazing on Christmas leftovers? Or are there modern traditions? And why the hell don't we have it here? When I first heard the term as a kid, I thought it meant people boxed - as in, in a ring. With gloves. I'm pretty sure that doesn't happen. Then when I was older I heard someone say it was a day people boxed up their old crap to give away while nipping at the Christmas Cheer. However, Wikipedia didn't mention anything about drunken spring cleaning.
