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."

My old school had some rules/traditions which were left over from centuries agoSchool monitors were allowed to have beards and smoke pipes and the head of school was allowed to keep a goat on the main field. No idea what caused them to be in place.
Obviously, if the rules say you can smoke a pipe and grow a beard, you have to smoke a pipe and grow a beard. No one likes breaking from tradition
