  2. Only in America! by Gadget_Guy · · Score: 3, Interesting

    It is only Pi Day if you use the date format of mm/dd. In countries that use dd/mm date format, it lands on 22/7. If you think about it, Pi Day makes more sense in that format.

    My subject line says "Only in America", but in reality Basque Country, Hungary, Korea, and Mongolia use mm.dd which makes the more ideal 3.14

    Waiting for 3/14/15 at 9:26 AM.

    Just before it flips to 9:27 we'll have an ultimate Pi moment.
