Finally!
I was aiming for creativity with this question. I really like the idea of ceremonially retiring an umbrella for a raincoat. Much more pleasant than getting someone’s socks wet, which is the best I’d come up with to acknowledge the rain.
One I saw during a comedy show: someone has invited you to an event. Acknowledge the invitation as kindly as possible without committing that you’ll be there.
“WOW that sounds fun!”
I've lived all over the world, and I think there are very few places which have what you're asking for. The best we have here is correcting people for calling it Pike's Place.

Wrong post.
Eat a teriyaki chicken take-out meal on a clear day while loudly proclaiming that "The mountain is out!"
As someone who grew up with real teriyaki from Japan (yes, I know that the story is "real teriyaki" is from here, but the Japanese style of making it is not), I feel this so much. I'm with you on the mountain being out, but the teriyaki is American style (not my preference) and I will die on that hill.
Eating a bag of Dick's?
Catching a tossed fish and kissing the gum wall.
I'd much rather kiss the fish.
People don't connect like that here. If they did, the first rite would surely be to step over a homeless person without making eye contact.
