Ibafa became known in the 20th century, because the local priest liked pipes. He was a strange ecclesiastical person, always seen with a pipe in his mouth, playing cards with pals in the pub. A journalist stumbled on him, and wrote a tongue-twister verse beginning with the line:
- "Az ibafai papnak fapipája van, ezért az ibafai papi pipa papi fapipa"
meaning
- "The priest of Ibafa has a wooden pipe, so the priestly pipe of Ibafa is a priestly wooden pipe".[1]
