Sunday’s date, 3.14, represents the first three numbers of Pi 3.14 the mathematical constant.
The seemingly never-ending number is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter.
Its Greek name shares the same pronunciation of an American classic pie, of course.
Baked Pie Company in Arden had a Pi Day Special kind of a pie party. Slices of pie were $3.14 each, and pie flights and whole pies were $3.14 off as well.
“People love to celebrate something. I called my sister this morning and wished her a Happy Pi Day, and it felt like a birthday celebration,” said Baked Pie Company owner Kirsten Fuchs.

I’d like to wish all you math nerds reading this on or around March 14 a “Happy Pi Day.”
Since 2010, my family has celebrated the 3.14 calendar date by hosting a neighborhood pie-eating blowout in my backyard. (Sadly, no party this year. #ThanksCOVID.)
Pi Day also reminds me of the one and only time I participated in a Kickstarter campaign. In 2013, via Kickstarter, I pledged $15 to a stranger on the internet who promised to manufacture metallic baking pans in the shape of the pi symbol. Obviously, I had to have one. A few months later, he delivered. I’ve been the happiest Pi Day nerd in the world ever since.
