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."

for some reason....when I got into sixth form, I delighted in wandering around school with no shoes on one day every other week, then when the first person to notice would say "Hey, you're not wearing any shoes" or "Where've your shoes gone?" I'd pretend I was distressed that I'd lost them and hadn't realised.
Also, any time I went in during the holidays (usually to pick up art stuff) I would have to make up a new reason why I was actually there if the head came out and asked me what I was doing there. One time I said I'd come to steal the silver and then take over the school in a military style coup.
