Today's off the wall fact that probably means nothing to anyone is:
According to a 2009 article published in TIME magazine, the phrase “Black Friday” was first applied in the 1960s in the fair city of Philadelphia by newspapers in reference to the morass of crowds resulting from the post-Thanksgiving holiday shopping haste. Apparently, some felt the scene was reminiscent of the rush of madness seen after the stock market panic of September 24, 1864, also known as “Black Friday,” and this is what the phrase originally referenced.
According to the NRF, the term “Black Friday” comes from the retail accounting perspective; it is said to refer to the stores’ profit margins in the days when the books were kept by hand with red ink signaling loss and black ink representing profit. As one of the most major shopping days of the year, “Black Friday” sales can push retailers’ finances from the “red” to the “black.”
Enjoy this turkey burner WOD! Hope that all of you had a great Thanksgiving.
