Festivus Apparently Now an Official Holiday

Apparently those who couldn't get enough of Festivus on Seinfeld can now celebrate it-- with the government deeming it an actual holiday. It's the decision of a judge where else? California:

Judge Johnson pulled King's lawyer and the prosecutor aside and said he needed a religion to put down on the order to make it stick, explained Thiagarajah.

“I said Festivus,” said Thiagarajah. The order was granted – three non-salami meals a day.

County Counsel researched Festivus, arguing the holiday was the creation of writer Dan O’Keefe to celebrate his first date with his wife in 1966. The holiday was introduced to the world by his son Daniel, a screenwriter for "Seinfeld," who wrote it into the show.

No kidding.
