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."

When you have kids...you develop the most bizarre traditions. Whenever we drive past an automatic car wash, someone needs to inform my wife whether or not the door is open. "Mamma, car wash door's open!"
This has its roots in an incident years ago where Setimrette wanted to wash the car, and sent one of the kids into the gas station to ask about it. They were told that they would have to enter the code on the reciept when they paid for the wash.
I still don't know why that was funny enough to make it into family legend, or why it was funny enough to post as an answer to this question.
