Or so the Lion Dance leader told me when I was photographing three of them and so he rather rudely pushed away the third chap!!

Chinese think even numbers are propitious. But "they never do things in odd numbers", that's not ture. For example, Chinese think 9 is a good number, but 4 is bad, because in Chinese four has the same pronounciation of death. I think the people you photographied must have other reason to do that.
