The idea was founded by chairman George Lucas after the idea came from the pun May the fourth be with you originally taken from the movies iconic line May the force be with you.

Many fans have since adopted the idea to celebrate the day to commemorate the decades-old franchise and the day has been acknowledged by both Disney and Lucasfilms to date.

While solid usage of the phrase May the fourth be with you only gained traction after May 4 in 1979, fans have since celebrated the day and phrase in a myriad of ways.
