DESCRIPTION:

Festivus originated in a 1997 episode of "Seinfeld," an American television show. It's celebrated within multi-faith cultures and large cities and provides a reason for people of various faiths to celebrate the season together.

The episode goes as such: George Costanza's father, Frank, is the exact person to "blame" for Festivus. Jerry says that when George was a kid, Frank got tired of all the commercialism associated with typical holidays, so he decided to create his own. Frank said: "Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son. I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way. A new holiday was born: Festivus for the rest of us!"

Now, one might ask: what does a Happy Festivus mean? Well, it includes a Festivus dinner, an unadorned aluminum Festivus pole, practices such as the "Airing of Grievances" and "Feats of Strength," and the labeling of easily explainable events as "Festivus miracles."

Basically, Festivus is a reason to have a party not associated with a religion or ethnicity in which all are welcome!
