Math and science buffs around the world celebrate March 14th as Pi Day. This most important mathematical constant is generally abbreviated to 3.14159, or even just 3.14, so, of course, it is celebrated on 3/14. This date is also Einstein's birthday.
Because of the sound of the word, many people mark the occasion by eating pie. Purists would celebrate exactly at 1:49 in the afternoon (or morning if you really love math). This time works really well for math teachers who look forward to ways to make math fun.

Happy birthday, Lewis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before I retired from where I worked, we used to have a pie competition on Pi Day for our group. Most of the 15 of us would bring a pie and enter it in the contest. No one knew whose pie was baked by who because we put them in the Board Room behind closed doors, and we voted on them during our lunch break.
