Laszlo'z pizza purchase is an interesting early anecdote but it isn't anywhere near significant enough to build a tradition on Besides that, creating specials 'days' is naff and tends to be indicative of campaigns trying to artificially build a 'movement' The celebratory days that have lasted through millennia all tend to be linked to the seasons!; mainly solstices & equinoxes. They're the only ones that make intrinsic sense. Everything else is astroturfing.
