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."

welcome to...When in a car passing from one county to another, I must begin whispering the name of the area currently being occupied (eg: Monmouthshire) repeatedly, gradually reaching a crescendo when passing the sign heralding the new county at which point I scream the name of the place I am now entering (eg Cardiff) at the top of my lungs and clapping my hands in glee. Started my brother on it too now.
I also have to put my fingers in my ears when flushing aeroplane toilets, and run out of my downstairs toilet at home. But only late at night. The flush has an air of menace.
