Weird TraditionsTalking with a friend yesterday about school dinners, she suddenly said, "We had to march into the dining room behind the School Band... except on Thursdays." Since all of us were now staring, she qualified this with, "...on Thursdays there was no wind section. It was a tradition."
What weird stuff have you been made to do "because it's a tradition."

Moooo!Whenever a phone rings, the gf and I shout "Teff-e-lone!" Not sure where this came from but her Mother's picked up on it, but gets it wrong and shouts "Telephone" at her bemused looking cat.
Also, we have a fridge with an ice maker and when we hear the fridge make another load of ice cubes we shout "Thanks fridge!"
Whenever the gf's mother and aunt come back from putting flowers on reletives graves the standard question was "How was it up there?" To which the answer should be "Dead quiet" but they've got this slightly wrong and now announce that everyone there is "Still dead."
I have to shout "COW!", say "Mooooo!" whenever we see Cows in a field on a road trip... Like the ad for dairylea light we move our front hooves like the floaty cow...
Edit:2nd...Not Bad...
