[QUOTE="pickup, post: 513706"] I am going out on a limb here. but it might definitely be an east coast thing at the very least , particularly a roman catholic thing (particularly italian-americans) . However, the jewish holiday of Passover started last night at sunset , and I believe the first two nights(which is the beginning of a calendar day of the hebrew calendar) of passover are pretty important. So, the fact that that one of these 2 days of passover falls on good friday this year improves the likelihood of business closures. (Plus if you are jewish, it is like a four day weekend). I think people who head for the west coast are a special breed who headed for the west coast to leave the past behind along with a lot of customs. Although the most assimilated jew would have a particularly hard time with giving up this holiday as it is essentially a feast day with few dietary restrictions( no leavened bread). This is a lot of conjecture on my part. [/QUOTE]
