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."

we are a family of petrol heads....... so we usually drive accordingly. swift, but not unsafe.
when i still lived with my parents our neighbours would complain that we are going too fast on the little communal driveway leading to our and thier houses. it's barely wider than a normal car and has fences on either side. about 50 yards long.
so i introduced the tradition that all of my friends as well as my brother's friends would do little drag races on that tiny strip of tarmac.
imagine _every_ friday and saturday night around 1130 pm a car going down that little strip with screeching tyres. sometimes backwards. you can still see some of the skidmarks...
