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."

carsMe and my sister had a game for in the car around the time when I was 16 and she was 14. If you see a car with one headlight out, you have to punch the ceiling of the car. However, my parents didn't like it, so we changed the rules so we'd punch each other rather than the car. They didn't like that either, so we'd just count up the number of cars with one headlight, and then when we got to our destination we'd punch each other in the arm for the number of cars.
Everyone said we should cut it down, so that if I saw 3 and she saw 5, then she would only hit me twice. However, my sister and I agreed that it would be unfair if one person didn't get to punch the other.
