Actually a pretty accurate list. I agree with almost all of it.

I would just throw July 4 up there somewhere in "best." I don't know how they celebrate it in NYC, but for those of us who grew up in middle America, it's a fucking awesome day: barbecues, fireworks wars on the lake, horseshoes, guns and bad tattoos, everyone trying to keep Uncle Tommy (who may not even be a real Uncle) away from Josephine who just turned 14. Ahhh, memories...

 

Agree with rebelcross - July 4 is a badass holiday. Even though there are starving children within 10 miles of my house, you bet your ass my family is going to drop at least $300 on fireworks and probably closer to $500 to get everyone fucking hammered.

I would like to also cast my vote for National Women Bring You Sandwiches Day, which is on May 17

How could you forget Saint Patty's Day? Easily my favorite holiday after Christmas and Thanksgiving. Tons of parties and parades. Everyone's Irish. What's not to like?

A little too much of a niche holiday. I'm sure you guys have an awesome time, but for people in, say, a place like where I grew up, they wouldn't know the difference between St. Patty's Day and Groundhog Day.
