Title: Happy May Two-Four weekend Eh?
Post by: daveismissing on May 20 2011, 04:33:41 PM

Urban Dictionary:

Queen Victoria's birth day, May 24th, is a statutory holiday in Canada and the first long weekend since Easter. It is the traditional weekend during which one opens 'the camp' (cottage), and signifies the start of summer (and Blackfly season) in Canada. The reference to 'two-four' rather than 'twenty-fourth' is a Canadian inside joke refering to the obligatory case(s) of 24 bottles of beer, or 'two-fours' required to celebrate the opening of the camp and to steel one's courage against the blackflies and the mice that will have settled into the camp since it was closed in the fall.

American and fucking proud. BTW, we have better beer. Try a Stone Brewery Double Bastard or Imperial Russian Stout and you have two four tears in your beer.
