Jerry Juhl Day is September 26, the anniversary of Jerry Juhl's passing in 2005. Fans on the Tough Pigs message board, inspired by his wife's sentiments, have decided that this should be a day to do silly things rather than mourn Jerry's death.[1]
After Juhl's passing, Ken Plume wrote a tribute article for IGN Film Force. When he told Susan Juhl that he would be writing the piece, "she had only one request β make it silly."[2]
Jerry Juhl Day is somewhat like a Silly Creature equivalent to the Fraggle's Joke Day.
