There's nothing cheesy about tradition.

Coronavirus concerns have delayed and denied millions of community events around the world this year, but silly social media users are finding hope in the ceremonial rolling of a Baybel cheese down an English hill to salute a canceled contest.

Each year, crowds flock to the Cooper’s Hill in Gloucester for the famous Cheese Roll and Wake, an epic event which Gloucestershire Live claims has been happening “for centuries.” On the big day, brave souls (competing in various divisions) throw themselves down the steep incline to tumble after a large wheel of Double Gloucester cheese, sent soaring by an official known as the Master of Cheese.

FRENCH ENCOURAGED TO EAT MORE CHEESE AS ACT OF PATRIOTISM TO HELP WITH SURPLUS AMID CORONAVIRUS LOCKDOWN

Though the May 25 event was canceled this year amid COVID-19 safety concerns, one fan was recently delighted to discover that another enthusiast ensured that tribute was paid.

On Monday, Twitter user Suzi declared had “never felt more patriotic” after reading a newspaper snippet which explained that while the annual Cheese Roll had been canceled amid the ongoing outbreak, “a symbolic Baybel cheese was rolled down the empty hill at 5:30 a.m.”
