May the 4th Be With You

Star Wars Day

Did You Know?

The first recorded reference was the phrase being first used on May 4, 1979, the day Margaret Thatcher took office as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. An online news article from the Danish public broadcaster says her political party, the Conservatives, placed a congratulatory advertisement in The London Evening News, saying “May the Fourth Be with You, Maggie. Congratulations.”*

How do you celebrate May 4th?
