Weird Traditions
Talking 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."

ambulances and muttering loonies
my gran passed this onto my mum, who then passed it to me. when an ambulance goes past with the sirens going you have to grab your collar and say "hold your collar, be a scholar, never be a patient".
sadly my walk to uni involve going past leeds general infirmary, where there are plenty of ambulances. cue me looking like a muttering loony on a daily basis.
also on new years you have to open the front and back doors to let the new year in and the old year out, or it stagnates according to my mother.
be gentle, its my first time.
