If you love the film "Mean Girls," you're probably aware of why October 3 is special and considered more "cool" than any other day of the year.
Ever since the popular comedy came out two decades ago, October 3rd has become known as "Mean Girls Day." But what is the reason behind this?
In the film, Lindsay Lohan portrays Cady Heron, who strikes up a conversation with her love interest, Aaron Samuels, portrayed by Jonathan Bennett.
Lohan delivers a memorable quote during a voice-over sequence when she states, "On October 3rd, he inquired about the date."

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the film, "Mean Girls" will be making a comeback in various cinemas nationwide on October 3.
New 'Mean Girls' Movie Hits Theaters Now
Earlier this year, Tina Fey produced and launched a fresh "Mean Girls" movie, based on the Broadway musical that was inspired by the 2004 film.
Similar to the 2004 film, this musical adaptation tells the story of Cady's relocation to the suburbs, where she encounters the challenging social dynamics of high school.

In that environment, she discovers that she's welcomed into a high-status but superficial clique of girls called the Plastics, headed by Regina George, portrayed by Reneé Rapp.
It was promoted as "a fresh take from Tina Fey," featuring music and modern technology, but Fey mentioned that the "fundamental storyline" still holds significance after twenty years.
