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."

glass eyes and pumpkin soup-My family has big Halloween celebrations. Every year we gather at my cousins' house and we eat pumpkin soup and stuff. During dinner my great great uncle John used to take out his glass eye and threaten to put it in our pumpkin soup. That must be why I was so scared of him...
-A tradition we have at my highschool dances is to get the dj to play the song that goes like"let's do the timewarp again" and then get everyone to dance in a circle. It started in the 80's I think with a bunch of nerds who didn't have dates.
-When I was a bit younger me and my sister and two other friends started playing the fart game. When you fart you have to catch it and then throw it like a lasso at someone. It's very bad if you get caught by the fart... heh we stopped playing that game though
-My great-grandmother has called me George since I was little (even though my name is Celeste). I'm not sure why she does it, but whenever I'm around her my name is George.
-Whenver I'm chopping onions and one falls off I have to yell "ONION OVERBOARD!"
