I heard on the radio that today is National Lobster Day…but, I wasn’t so sure so I did some research. I’ve found conflicting reports. Some sources say that National Lobster Day in the United States was June 15th and other say that it is indeed today. Hence my question mark in the title. It does seem that it used to be celebrated back in June, but the US Senate, lead by a resolution from Maine State Senators, agreed to designate this day in September as “the day” four years ago.
So, thank a lobsterman….or maybe a certain lobster buyer….you happen to know for all of their really hard work…and go enjoy a lobster. Is anyone in town offering deals today?
Here is a “have a great day (whatever day it is) from my littlest lobsterman. And….no, that wasn’t a keeper and was definitely thrown back.
Here is one source that claims today is the day.
Senate Recognizes September 25th as National Lobster Day for 4th Straight Year
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [SeafoodNews] – September 25, 2018
National Lobster Day is here – again!
Although some celebrate on June 15, the U.S. Senate has recognized September 25 as the official National Lobster Day for the fourth year in a row.
Maine Senators Susan Collins and Angus King introduced a resolution to designate September 25, 2018 as National Lobster Day back in July.
