Today is Towel Day. Remember a towel is “about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitch hiker can have.”
Towel Day is celebrated every May 25th as a tribute by fans of the late author Douglas Adams. On this day, fans carry a towel with them to demonstrate their love for the books and the author, as referenced in Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
(So keep that in mind with your intergalactic travels this summer)
So don’t panic and let your Geek Pride Show!
Geek Pride Day is May 25, and here’s what you need to know about the celebration for nerds worldwide.
The date was reportedly chosen to coincide with the first Star Wars film, Episode IV: A New Hope, which was released on May 25, 1977. The day also marks Towel Day, which is celebrated by fans of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy author Douglas Adams. Fans carry a towel in his honor. Lastly, the day also marks The Glorious 25th of May, which fans of author Terry Pratchett’s Discworld celebrate, often with a sprig of lilac.
