    I saw this yesterday:

    So is this really true?
    If you see the calendar here on clutchfans.net, then october 5th doesnt have the most people on it ( in the same month have other days with more birthdays)

    I think it was April or May, because "in summer people suppose to be horny" :grin: so 9 months later.

    So what do you think?

    The least common birthday is February 29. No study needed.

    I am guessing that is because the sign up defaults to Jan 1. A lot of those people probably didn't change it.

    I was born a week after, on the twelfth, but was conceived in April. I find that the twelfth is pretty common, two other people I know have a birthday when I do, but I don't know anyone with a birthday on the twelfth.

    I'm an October 5th birthday. I've heard that it was the most common birthday, but I have only known one or two other people who share it.

    It is also Grant Hill's birthday.

    Conceived in April, but born in October? Are you saying you were 3 months premature?

    I can see New Year's Resolutions playing a role here. I'd like to see the curve. If 10/5 is the most popular, you'd think 10/4 and 10/6 were also up there and that September and October were high months generally. My birthday is 10/1, so I'm close.

    Weird, I was just thinking about how I know 3 people off the top of my head that have birthdays today.

    A day late, sure, but falls within the "New Years" range.

    I've noticed a lot of peoples birthdays fall around Sept-Oct. Makes sense I guess, from all the banging that is done because of the cold weather. :eek:

    October 5th... 9 months and 4 days after New Year's Day.

    Yeah, not surprising.

    You do now. Columbus Day FTW.

    I don't even want to think about my conception date. My parents having sex? GROSS!

    I love and am afraid of data warehousing. Puts everything down to a science.

    A million Birthdays on October 5? That makes it a holiday, but merchandising standards. Time for a sale!
