The following facts came from The Fact Site.

12th December – Ding-A-Ling Day.

No, it’s not a euphemism. Ding-A-Ling Day is all about calling friends and family that you haven’t spoken to in a while.

Started in 1972 by Frank Hyle, who took an ad out in the local paper stating that for just $1, you could join the Ding-A-Ling Club.

The response was 871 members, which, by my count, is about $850 for Mr. Hyle, after he accounted for the price of the ad.

The Ding-A-Ling Club would call friends and family members every year on this date.

To this day, people still honor the 12th of December by calling distant friends and nearly forgotten loved ones.

So pick up the phone today and let friends and family know that you haven’t forgotten them, you just suck at staying in contact.
