Today is National Tug-Of-War Tournament Day

There are tug of war clubs in many countries, and both men and women participate.

The sport was part of the Olympic Games from 1900 until 1920, but has not been included since. The sport is contested in the World Games. The Tug of War International Federation (TWIF), organises World Championships for nation teams biannually, for both indoor and outdoor contests, and a similar competition for club teams.

In England the sport is catered for by the Tug of War Association (formed in 1958), and the Tug of War Federation of Great Britain (formed in 1984). In Scotland, the Scottish Tug of War Association was formed in 1980. The sport also features in Highland Games there.

On Flitch Day we recognize that 1980's comedy classic starring Chevy Chase. Wait, that's not right. No, Flitch Day recognizes the custom of awarding a flitch of bacon (the side cut of the pig) to married couples who make it through their first year and a day with no regrets. This tradition started in 15th century England and is still carried on in some towns today. So to all of you newlyweds out there, may your only regret be that you didn't get more free bacon throughout the year.

I would prefer a piece of Kevin Bacon myself!!!!!

Well, here's a holiday I won't be celebrating.

Today is National Caviar Day. I know that caviar doesn't have to be just for rich people anymore, but I can't help but think that they're the only people who will celebrate this day -- riding around in limos, wearing their tuxedos and tiaras, eating Beluga caviar and lighting their cigars with burning ten dollar bills (sorry, I get all my knowledge of wealthy people from old TV shows and Richie Rich comic books).

Or maybe this is the day when the rest of us can try caviar for the first time. And by "us," I mean "you," because there is no way I'm trying fish eggs. Maybe you can try that recipe in the pic above. It's a Swedish favorite, a sandwich made with hard boiled eggs and cod roe caviar in a tube.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!!!!! Time to "Get Stinky"

Today is National Nude Day

Don’t be shocked if you see people showing a little more skin than usual today. July 14th is National Nude Day! Now, we’re not exactly sure how to pull this off (no pun intended), but we’re pretty sure you’re supposed to embrace nudity for the day. Unfortunately these holidays always have unintended consequences and we find ourselves witnessing sights that nobody wants to see. You have to take the good with the bad.

We at Stinky Gringo Margaritas are excited to announce the authorization of our delicious Original & Strawberry Margaritas in the Seven County Metro-Milwaukee

our beloved Margarita. In Total 68 stores began selling Stinky Gringo as of July 1st, 2011.

National Cheer Up The Lonely Day......

If this task sounds like kind of a downer, then you may be sitting on the cheery side of the fence. And you're just the kind of person we need. We can all get a little lonely now and then, and sometimes all it takes to brighten our day is a visit or a phone call from a friend. If you know someone who seems a little lonesome -- perhaps someone who celebrated Teddy Bear Picnic Day yesterday, for instance -- then send a little smile their way.
