At Urban South Brewery in New Orleans, crawfish fanatics can feast at the weekly Crawfish Boils, 11 a.m. to sell-out, each Friday, Saturday and Sunday now
Perhaps the oddest among them is National Velociraptor Awareness Day.
Brought to fame (or infamy, depending on how you look at it) in the popular series of âJurassic Parkâ movies, raptors are bipedal carnivores with a long tail and an upturned snout that roamed the Earth more than 70 million years ago.
According to livescience.com, their name is derived from the Latin words velox (swift) and raptor (robber or plunderer).
Velociraptors.info, a tongue-in-cheek site, touts the American Society for Velociraptor Attack Prevention as a safety group dedicated to protecting people from the long-extinct predators.
Those who want to celebrate the mighty velociraptor on Sunday have a number of watching options in five âJurassic Parkâ movies. There are also a number of documentaries that feature more factual information about the âswift robber.â
Plus, some big beers are coming your way. Get excited.

Saturday, April 17 is National Crawfish Day, so we scoured the interwebs for a trio of spots that will prepare the crustaceans in a classic seafood boil to celebrate.
