(Houston, TX) — Today is 713 Day in Houston.
The unofficial local holiday is every July 13th, and is named after Houston’s most popular area code.
The 713 area code is one of the oldest in the nation, dating back to 1947.
Native Houstonian Beyoncé Knowles and her husband Jay-Z introduced the area code into pop culture with their song “713”.
Try not to let the fact that 713 Day this year is also Friday the 13th get you down.
