National Ding-a-Ling Day

If you tend to march to the beat of a different drummer, you’re in luck! Dec. 12 is National Ding-a-Ling Day, an annual “holiday” that celebrates the ding-a-ling and ding-dongs in all of us! According to the American Heritage Dictionary, a ding-a-ling is defined as a “person who is scatterbrained or eccentric.” Does that ring a bell with anyone?

Legend has it the Ding-a-Ling Club sponsors this special day to promote ding-a-lings, the “wonderful, loving, intelligent, friendly, and the most desirable kind of person to know…a real bellringer!”
