Sales - Black Friday - View Post

It is because this is the day that has the most night according to wiccan calendars. So, as tradition has it when the great wiccan king of Golan came in 1473 BC and killed off 100,000's of people it was on this day, Friday. Thus, Black Friday.

The whole retailer thing is just an urban myth. Mine is factually based in a pre-historical oral tradition made up on the spot.
The Wiccans in your made up on the spot myth must have pretty crappy calendars - winter solstice is in December!
