If any of you are like me you are wondering why is there a day on our calendar to celebrate vodka. This is a very confusing thing to me and one thing that I wonder is that if the vodka companies are responsible for it.
This is all just a thought and all of us can obviously think of a thousand different reasons why this exist but let's talk about some, discuss them, and wonder what could be true.
While the origin of the holiday can't be tracked we all know it is there, a day to celebrate a drink, a day to encourage drinking, and a day to forget about tomorrow. Sounds great right? While I don't really endorse the idea of drinking it is very interesting to me how something like this could become a holiday so I would like to talk about it.
Back to my earlier point, I think this could of been something related to the day when vodka became the most popular spirit in North America. This is only a sound thought if the holiday started after it became popular.
Another Idea would be to think that the vodka companies declared it a holiday a long time ago to raise the popularity and increase sales of vodka similar to how stores increase sells for Christmas. This isn't completely impossible.
My final idea for what could of happened is that a group of people simply declared it "vodka day" for them, their friends, or family. This could of simply spread to many other people as well.
Since the origin of the holiday is unknown the real reason for it may never come to life but it could of been anything as silly as a bunch of people starting a tradition to a company trying to make an amazing profit.
What about all of you? What do you think is the source of national vodka day and how do you think it got started?
