• The day the first pig actually flew (November 4, 1909)

• That time the United States ran out of toilet paper (December 19, 1973)

Drawing on a range of subjects including politics, sports, the arts, pop culture, and more, each What the … fact offers daily or dip-in-and-out diversion, and an opportunity to learn something new and stranger every day.
