6th October – Mad Hatter Day.
Mad Hatter Day is all about being completely silly.
Named after the Mad Hatter from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Caroll, but more specifically, it is named for the Mad Hatter as he is seen in the 1951 Disney film Alice in Wonderland.
This is because the Mad Hatter is seen with a little receipt in his hat that reads “10/6” which actually means that the hat cost ten shillings and sixpence in old wacky English money.
However, Americans have used the date 10/6, which would actually be the 10th June in England.
The Mad Hatter gets his name from the phrase “as mad as a hatter”, which came about because milliners (hat makers) used to use mercury in the manufacture of fancy hats, which would send them crazy from the mercury poisoning.
Buy yourself a top hat and act like a weirdo today.
