    THE STORY

    In Gardiz they have a very interesting tradition in smaller villages. For weddings there are so to say a joke or singing " Slam" where all the men from the village are two snakes over, and screaming their jokes back and forth. The boys prepare yourself with the best jokes ! In the middle of the two snakes of the joke teller occurs and dances. They do but only in villages because they are ashamed about in larger cities. Women sing between each other at weddings.
