As a child, I was told, to open the garage door you have to yell, "HOCUS, POCUS, OPEN THE GARAGE DOOR!" and it would usually open. When it didn't, my mom told me i was standing on the wrong oil spot in the driveway. (Later on she told me that she heard me yelling, and had to run to the garage door opener!)
