It’s our day. Let’s party.<\/p>\n
Houston\u2019s most Houston holiday is back. July 13 marks the day when the calendar date aligns just right as 7\/13, also the city\u2019s most well-known area code. Every 713 Day, Houstonians go all out showing Space City pride with events, performances, and plenty of $7.13 food and drink specials.<\/p>\n
This year, 713 Day falls on a weekday\u2014a Monday no less. Most of us, sadly, won\u2019t get this \u201cnotliday\u201d off, though that should certainly be considered (looking at you, Mayor Whitmire). Nevertheless, the city is using this year\u2019s timing as an excuse to start the celebrations early, with many kicking off the fun on Friday or Saturday. Let\u2019s get this party started.
