Valentine's Day - "After Roman fertility festival Lupercalia, when the young men of Rome wearing olive oil and not much else would run through the streets waving oak branches over the heads of young girls to inspire fertility. Replaced with Feast of St. Valentines, martyred in 295 AD"
Why can't we have fun holidays like that, not Hallmark days?
