​Truck Wheels, Grilled Cheese and Weird Holidays

Today is a very special day because April 12 is National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day. That’s right, and the best way to go about celebrating this fine day is by grilling up a cheese and bread masterpiece for the occasion.

It also happens to be National Licorice Day, so you should wash that grilled cheese sandwich down with a licorice stick.

If these odd holidays don’t excite you, we are sure there are at least a few obscure holidays that you would look forward to if you knew they existed. Here are a few that might interest you.

Ugly Truck Day

Let’s face it, there are truck owners out there who have trucks that are, well, let’s just say they won't win any beauty contests, like their owners. But now that is not to say that they are ashamed of their trucks, in fact, if given the opportunity they would show them off to the world.

Without a doubt, many of the trucks you see on July 20, National Ugly Truck Day, are work trucks, used to haul stuff around and probably take a pretty good beating day in and day out. These aren't pretty boy trucks with polished Truck wheels from manufacturers like Level 8 Wheels, Verde Wheels and V Rock Wheels, these trucks have wheels that are rusted, dirty and just plain ugly.

We get it, if you are using your truck for work, then it makes sense to sort of let it go as far as looks are concerned. There is nothing more frustrating than having grease or mud or cement splatter all over your fancy paint job while you are working.

Ugly Truck Day is a day in which you can let the world know that even though your truck is uglier than Optimus Prime at the end of every Transformer movie, it runs well and it makes you money and you are proud of the way it looks.

National Spaghetti Day

January 4 is National Spaghetti Day. The best way to celebrate this fine holiday is by gathering the family around the table at 6 pm sharp to pass around the bowl of spaghetti you have prepared.

Come to think about it, we have holidays for all sorts of our favorite foods. For example, February 9 is National Bagel Day, January 23 is National Pie Day and December 30 is National Bacon Day. MMMMMMMMM, bacon.

No Pants Day

The first Friday of the month of May is National No Pants Day. And as you might expect, it is a day in which you don't wear pants at home or in public. According to the spirit of the holiday, participants should go about their day just like any other, except, of course, they're not wearing pants. And they should act like they are unaware that they aren't wearing pants.

Nobody knows for sure when No Pants Day started, but many suspect it began sometime in the early 1980s, around the same time Risky Business was released in theaters.

According to legend, some guy had his wife iron his pants for a big meeting at work. He wanted to look his best after all. But the task was taking much longer than anticipated and the guy had to rush off to work carrying his pants because they were too hot to wear.

When he reached work, he rushed inside and totally forgot to put his pants on. Instead of making a big deal about it, he played it like there was nothing wrong. And that is how all of this was started.

National Cat Day

Who Cares.

Hobbit Day

September 22 is Hobbit Day. The only reason to get excited about this holiday is that it is tradition to serve two breakfasts.

King Tut Day

November 4 is King Tut Day, a day in which you walk like an Egyptian.

I Forgot Day

Although this holiday officially falls on July 2, many of you celebrate it all year long, especially on wedding anniversaries and spouse’s birthdays.

World Emoji Day

Seriously, what is this world coming to?

Be a Dork Day

July 15 is Be a Dork Day. On this holiday, there is no need to hide your true self.

Cousins Day

Typically only celebrated in the South.

You know, you could order a set of sweet wheels from BB Wheels and be disqualified from National Ugly Truck Day. Just a thought.
