Default Local Traditions

Moving on from another thread, we seen Lawnmower racing and Black Pudding throwing to knock as many Yorkshire puds as possible.
Could the 2 be combined to form a super sport or could we create a super sport from local traditions

What other odd customs happen around the country or even globally?

In my area there are a few.

We've seen the Lawn mower racing around the streets of Barnstaple MOWER RACE
Shebbear have Devil's Stone. No Videos
Ottery St Mary have Tar Barrel race TAR BARREL RACE
Padstow or Padstein as it is known locally now, have The Oss OSS LINKY

Oh i can't forget the Torrington Cavalier's for their outstanding Bonfires and the money they have raised for charity. This years Trumpton was amazing and the run up to the burning down open for visitors, it's the first time my kids had seen Trumpton. LINKY

So instantly i'm thinking, Running to your lawn mower with a flaming tar barrel on your back a few laps and a stop for knocking some Yorkshire puddings off using some Black pudding and scoring some bonus points a few more laps and........ what have we got out there?
