About the Holiday

Heads or Tails? Flip a Coin Day is about making decisions by simply flipping a coin. Flipping coins to make decisions has a long history as it's believed to date back to ancient Rome during the reign of Julius Caesar. The city of Portland, Oregon received its name because of a coin toss. [1] Nowadays, coin tossing is used in many types of sporting events to determine things like who gets first use of the ball or which end or which end of the field the teams will play. Celebrate this holiday by brushing up on your coin tossing skills.
