Today is what???

I walk into the news room and my lovely assignment editor asks me, "What day is this?" "I don't know", I replied. She responds, "Today is Constitution Day". "Huh?", I said. "Yeah, can you & Caroline go get some people's reactions to this?" Considering that I didn't know what else was coming my way we had to make this one quick. So off to Tiger Town but first some back story.

Now everyone knows when certain holidays are coming. You know when Labor Day is because you are looking for that 3 day weekend. You look forward to Halloween where for one night only you can dress up as something ridiculous and still fit in . You know when your church is packed that all of the C-M-E people are there. What? Yeah, C-M-E. Christmas, Mother's Day, and Easter. Everyone shows up for those holidays. But what if I told you today was Constitution Day. You would ask "Senator what in the world are you talking about?" On this day, Sept. 17, 1787, the U.S. Constitution was adopted and later ratified by conventions of each state by the people. In 2004 it was declared that this day would give recognition to the Constitution. In fact every school that receives federal funding must teach students facts of the Constitution.

So we arrive at LSU, sorry Jaguar Nation, we had to make this one quick. We stalked our prey asking them the question of all questions, "Do you know what day this is?" Here's the story, I just wish I was there to put it together but hey there is always Boxing Day, do we celebrate that????
