Did You Know...?
One hilarious tradition in Glasgow is capping the equestrian Wellington Statue on Royal Exchange Square with a traffic cone, which was believed to have started back in the 80s. Glasgow’s council and police force highly discourage it, but the people of Glasgow just can’t help themselves, and if you pass ol’ Wellington on your visit, he’ll most likely be donning a fabulously conical ‘hat’.
