NATIONAL LOOK ALIKE DAY
National Look Alike Day is observed annually on April 20th in the United States.
More often than not, we hear words like “oh you look like someone I know”, “you remind me of someone”, or “you look like so and so”.
This is why the national look-alike day was created, to celebrate our doppelgangers.
According to nationaldaycalendar.com ‘National Look Alike Day was created by feature television reporter, Jack Etzel, in the 1980s. He was in downtown Pittsburgh with photographer Rick Minutello, desperately looking for a light feature for the news’.
Rick said, “This guy coming toward us looks like Humphrey Bogart.” He did, cigarette and all. Jack said, “Let’s talk to him. I’ll ask him who people think he looks like.” They spent a couple of hours asking others the same question.
The next day Etzel got in touch with the Chase Calendar of Events people and proclaimed Look Alike Day so that they could depend on that same funny story for the next ten years.
Check out photos of people that have spitting resemblance with some very famous celebs.
