I found out recently every Premier League soccer team will be playing on Boxing Day in England.
It happens to be the day after Christmas and apparently, this is a tradition in England. It seems every sport will play that day. So Sandy asks me, “Do you know what Boxing Day is and what the tradition is?” I naturally say, “Of course I do. It’s not hard to figure out. It’s the day when a big boxing match is held, huge wagers are made, and they all eat chips and dip (well, I suppose our type of chips). Just like our Super Bowl.”
Wrong
I start to research Boxing Day and find out that it is a secular holiday in England (and other countries but primarily the former British empire countries). Read More Boxing Day: Pugilistic or Humanistic?
