Harriet Tubman Day was enacted by the U.S. Congress in 1990 to honor the abolitionist who led hundreds of enslaved people to freedom via the Underground Railroad and later served as a Union spy during the Civil War. International Day of Awesomeness was founded in 2008 by Kevin Lawver and pegged to Chuck Norris’s birthday — a celebration of doing something remarkable, however modest. Mario Day is grounded in a typographical coincidence: MAR10 reads like Mario, the Nintendo plumber introduced in 1981’s Donkey Kong. International Bagpipe Day rallies pipers and pipe bands to perform publicly each March. History, typography, and drone reeds on one date.
