We all know in the wonderful world of beer/drinking there are some weird traditions and holidays, let me introduce to yet another. Dyngus Day!
Dyngus Day is a Polish-American tradition that has it's roots as far back as 966. (Yes, that's 966AD not 1966!) It's kind of a Roman Catholic/Polish holiday that has morphed in to a bit of a crazy Post-Lenten, beer-drinking, hootin' hollerin' good time! The largest organized Dyngus Day celebration is currently in Buffalo, NY but there are celebrations all over the world today!
Check out the links below for more information on Dyngus Day. Cheers!
