What is Underdog Day?

Underdog Day, observed on the third Friday of December, honours the people and teams nobody expects to win. It celebrates the second-in-command, the backup player, the small business up against giants and the quiet worker whose effort makes others shine. The day invites people to cheer for an underdog, thank someone who works behind the scenes, and remember that many great stories began with the side nobody backed.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
