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."

Air FarceAccording to a sad mate, it's an Air Force tradition to say "Marion" when you burp. If you don't, or someone else says "Marion" first, you have to touch a door handle before you get hit.
And my kids started saying "aaaaahhhhhhh" when driving over any bumpy surface, or riding in a shopping trolley, or riding on my Missus' lap in her wheelchair. We got some funny looks - one adult and two kids being pushed by me over rough pavement, all yelling "aaaaaahhhhhh"...
Sorry. Don't know why.
