I recall a very experienced flying instructor doing precisely this at a UK airfield when it was closed, his student flew the ILS perfectly and at decision height went around... only to meet someone who was doing exactly the same thing after executing an instrument approach on the recipricol runway.

I believe that both sets of pilots went away to contemplate in a dark room for a while and then considered the dry cleaning bill for their respective underwear.
