I'm guessing today is the most common birthday for popes.

You could be correct. 365 days, 266 Popes, and three of them land on March 2? We'll just go with it.

Today is Sunday, March 2, the 61st day of 2025
with 304 to follow.



On this date in history:

...

In 2023, Los Angeles Lakers icon LeBron James became the first NBA player to reach 40,000 regular-season points. He broke the previous record -- 38,387 by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar -- in 2023.

This last bullet seems silly. It would have made more sense to give us the year Abdul-Jabber created the record. Just sayin'.

My, aren't we the grammer and linguistics coach of the banter this morning.

Don't be offended. I'm assuming you cut and pasted. I'm not criticizing you.

So Abdul-Jabber broke the record on April 5, 1984 with 31,420. He finally scored his 38,387th at the end of regular season play in 1989.

I'm guessing today is the most common birthday for popes.

We'll let Tony research it.

ChatGPT is being a pain in the ass with, "due to incomplete historical records, especially for early Popes, determining the most common birthdate among all 266 is not possible." Yet, it also tells us that no date exists where a birthdate is shared by four or more Popes. So CigarBanter is going with today.
