The FFF's of May

STAR WARS

Happy Star Wars day everyone!
Oh you didn't know that it was on May 4th? I guess that's just us Star Wars dorks who only know that sort of information. But let's see just how much you know about what's happened in the month of May throughout history.

In May of 1972 the New York Stock Exchanged opened
In May of 1911 we saw the first Indy 500
In May of 1931 the Empire State Building opened
And in May of 1980 Mount St Helen erupted.

George Lucas also has a birthday in May.... like me!

So pull out your lightsaber and assemble the stormtroopers because Star Wars day is officially on!!

(no I'm not dressing up in a Darth Vader costume for work)

Did you mean 1792 instead of 1972? The NYSE opened in 1792.
