So, did you have a PC who started an in-game tradition? It doesn't have to have lasted forever. Just long enough to make an amusing story.
Mine:
My first Byn Sargent bought a stinky gith helm when he was a runner, because it was vaguely better than dying. When he replaced it, he passed it to a new runner. That stinky helm went through several characters all by itself, passing from one to the next.
