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."

Hearses and White RabbitsMy friend had a tradition where, on seeing a hearse, he would hold his collar until he saw a dog. His mum passed that on to him.
My mum has a thing where on the first of the month the first thing out of your mouth should be 'White Rabbit' to get good luck for the rest of the month. If you failed, you had to say 'Black Horse' as quickly as possible.
Actually, these, and many other posts, are more like superstitions than traditions... Hmmm...
