With Festivus happening in less than 48-hours Festivus Miracles are happening all around us.
Look for Festivus Miracles to appear in people’s lives every year around Festivus-time. Usually the appearances are just as lame and as forced as Kramer’s miracles, however, when people use the phrase “It’s a Festivus Miracle” just about anything may seem special. So, we tend to use it often!
A Frisky Pooch
From her Instagram post, Tarra Judge has a well-labelled aluminum pole in the front yard, and the high strength-to-weight ratio keeps the puppy acting frisky. Definitely a Festivus Miracle. Happy Festivus Tarra!

Cats of Festivus
What will animal-shelter kitties do for Festivus? Have a Festivus Party of course. It’s another Festivus Miracle!
Tail Town Cats of Pasadena will spotlight six adorable adoptable cats as they climb a Festivus pole; viewers at home can watch live. The hopes are to interest folks into adopting an adorable adoptable feline.
Festivus brings a fun and close-to-home chance for humans of all ages to “meow” with the charming cats of Tail Town as we celebrate the season. Popularized in the nineties, Festivus originated in the mid-sixties and true to Seinfeld-era holiday traditions, each of the six Tail Town honorees will air their individual grievances, attempt to climb the Festivus pole and perform feats of strength during a short livestream on Friday, Dec. 23, aired direct from Tail Town!
A petition for the rest of us
The official Seinfeld social media sites are promoting a petition to make Seinfeld a national holiday in the United States. Actually, there has been similar petitions in the past. Maybe this time it will make it through? That would be another Festivus Miracle.
We're doing it! We've launched a petition to make Festivus a national holiday. It's time to honor Frank Costanza's legacy. It's time to #MakeFestivusOfficial! Join the cause. pic.twitter.com/YwTnVpY7xj

A working pole
Seen on I Celebrate Festivus, Dave McWhorter has an unadorned Festivus Pole at his desk. It keeps him working, with less distractions than a Christmas tree. Another Festivus Miracle. Happy Festivus Dave!
