Fred mentioned this date twice on Sanford and Son in two Different episodes. I was wondering why that particular date was used more than one time. Lamont would ask Fred when he was going to do something and Fred would say May 1-LOL. So if someone knows the significance behind this date-please let me know.

I know that May 1st is International Workers Day. It is celebrated pretty much everywhere except the United States, and is to commemorate the strikes of Industrial workers in the 1860's in the U.S. Hope this helps.

it might be better to say MAY 1 instead of never.*laughing*

But FRED said May 1st TWICE. Something is behind that date

You people are forgetting the most important aspect of May 1st!
It is the opening day of the Hernia Festival!!

I don't think that's why it was mentioned
