Personally, I think they just all WANTED to go to Gryffindor, so the
Sorting Hat obliged. I think it's just a Weasley family tradition,
just like the Blacks and the Malfoys go to Slytherin.

For all we know, maybe the Sorting Hat DID offer Slytherin to Percy,
but 11-year-old Percy got all in a huff at this suggestion and refused
it flatly, without realising that he would HAVE to stop his
mommy-pleasing game some day or another, and that the longer he waited
the harder it would be.

And I agree with those who said that it takes guts to oppose your
entire family.
