April Fool's Day

                         April Fool’s Day

April Fool’s day is on April 1st. The purpose of April Fool’s day is not fully confirmed.It dates back to the fifteen hundreds. There was a julian calendar, which had new year’s eve on April 1st. However Pope Gregory XIII demanded for there to be a new calendar. This new calendar made it so that New Year’s Eve would be celebrated on January 1st. However, there were people who were “traditionalists” and kept celebrating on April 1st. So people who followed the new calendar would take April 1st to pull pranks and other fun stuff on people who still celebrated new years on April 1st. Some theories say that a roman emperor, Constantine, was being entertained by a jester, to which they said they could rule better than the current king. Constantine was amused and made the jester king for a day. He then made it law so that one day a year would be spent with humor like pulling pranks and tricking people. Some pros about April Fool’s Day is that everyone spends this day having many laughs. Everyone pulls a neat little trick on someone they know, and laughter is heard everywhere. However, there are also many cons. Some people just don’t like to celebrate and think it’s stupid. Some people are also party poopers and will start nagging if they are bothered during April fools. Some other people can also think this holiday is just really stupid.
