Prague is the English name given to the former communist capital of Czechoslovakia. But, in the native Czech language, the city is known as Praha, pronounced Pra-Ha. Tying the town into the world of Phish, Mike, Sam, and I devised a personal joke between us. After repeating the rock riff to the Fishman tune Ha Ha Ha, another one of us would say, "Pra-ha-ha-ha" instead of the usual "ha-ha-ha-ha." 

It was a stupid little joke, but it made us laugh. On the train out of Prague, I overheard a small group of three or four Phishheads repeat the Pra-ha-ha joke to themselves. Same joke. Same context. Unbelievable.
