What holidays are only really celebrated in the U.S?

I know Thanksgiving and 4th of July. How about others like Halloween?

Halloween was actually huge in Ireland when I was there years ago. I think most countries celebrate similar secular holidays, if not at the same time.
@Pherick haha bigger than St. Patrick's?

@GalacticJourney I was in this tiny town pub for Halloween, and everyone in town was there dressed up fully! Like not crappy dollar store masks, but great costumes.

Looks like they do celebrate St. Patricks Day in Ireland! Maybe not quite as wildly as we do :)
@Pherick that's so awesome!!

Snake clubbing to death day. Nobody else does that! Best wishes

"Whacking Day" is the twentieth episode of The Simpsons' fourth season. It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on April 29, 1993.[1] The episode revolves around the fictional holiday "Whacking Day", celebrated annually, in which the citizens of Springfield drive snakes into the town square, then club them to death.

The episode was written by John Swartzwelder and directed by Jeffrey Lynch; Barry White, who had expressed a wish to appear in the show, guest stars as himself. It was pitched by George Meyer, who wanted to create an episode against the mistreatment of snakes (the episode ended up winning a Genesis Award). The episode includes the first appearance of Superintendent Chalmers, and it features an Itchy & Scratchy parody of Oliver Stone's film JFK.
@sogdianrock haha that's awesome!
