Bring luck, sure. Definitely wasn't just started by some bloke who wanted to fondle some statue tits.

'twas in Dublin fair city

Where the girls are so pretty

i would argue that its important to keep things the way they are now. just imagine what would happen if these rabid gropers cant get their fix. they might actually start assaulting real people and then we would be in a right mess
