This is the kind of celebration where you make plans weeks in advance, show up in force, and take it seriously.
A day with its own history, its own tradition, its own moment of cultural unity.
It traces back to 1995 when two Oregonians, John Bauer and Mark Summers, decided the world needed an official day of silliness.

It's one of those rare occasions where you get full social permission to be absolutely absurd in public.
