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."

...ones about performing certain actions whilst out in a car and you see a yellow one/paddy wagon/landmark etc. My mate and his missus have three kids and play 'pinch beetle' which is a variation of the same, only when they see a VW Beetle etc etc et al.
They were giving me a lift somewhere once, and introduced this game to me - I suggested a variation in jest, named 'slap audi' - kind of like 'happy slap whoever's nearest to you if you see a TT'. Months later, my mate is still cursing my name after his kids slap the sense out of each other, and his missus out of him, every time they see one.
Oops - well, it was in jest :)
