In Germany, 25-years-old unmarried persons are meant to partake in a quirky custom.
Do you know: At 25 bachelors in Germany are known as ‘old socks’ and bachelorettes are known as ‘old boxes’.
Bachelors in Germany receive garlands of socks draped all over and around their houses for everyone to see. What’s more, as the birthday boy follows the garland of socks he must have a drink. The same is applicable for bachelorettes: only in place of socks, they receive the garlands of boxes.
