Hello boys and girls! It is Anastasia again!
As you all know it is almost May 4th, and you know what that means?!?!
"May the "fourth" be with you! I'm not a Star Wars fan, BUT i thought it would be interesting to tell you guys about it!
May 4th is considered an official Holiday, by Star Wars fans to celebrate Star Wars culture and honor the films.
The reason they call May 4th "Star Wars" day also known as Luke Skywalker day, is because of the pun spoken on this day. But the thing is Stars Wars fans were not the first to introduce the line "May The Fourth Be With You", because when Margaret Thatcher was elected Britain's first female Prime minister on May 4, 1979, her party placed an advertisement in the "The London Evening News" that had said "May the fourth be with you, Maggie..
In 2011, the first organized celebration of Star Wars Day took place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada at the Toronto Underground Cinema. Festivities included an Original Trilogy Trivia Game Show, a costume contest with celebrity judges, and the web's best tribute films, mash-ups, parodies, and remixes on the big screen. The second annual edition is scheduled to take place on Friday, May 4, 2012!!!
