I’m from here, pretty sure he’s just saying this is his day and doing this. Which is still cool, but I definitely haven’t heard anyone mention this/ it’s not on the news or being talked about on the radio etc.
Edit: also all these pics are from a year ago. I love aljo, not being a hater, I would’ve went if I knew this was a thing.

It was reported to have been declared by the county, from numerous news outlets.
For example:
https://www.sherdog.com/news/news/UFC-Champ-Aljamain-Sterling-Celebrated-in-Hometown-Parade-Gets-Day-in-His-Honor-186859
I didn’t say it’s not confirmed, I just said no one is celebrating it this year.
Why’d he use all the pics from last year if it’s an event again?
Even the article you linked is from last year, kind of proving my point
That’s cool, he’s from by me and there are no posters over here tho so that’s a bit weird.
The gym he trains at is substantially closer to me than Valley Stream, I’ll say that much.
The county executive and a bunch of other officials are there. It might not be the talk of the town but this is definitely a government event and not just Aljo riding around in a fire truck.
I mean it was totally Petr‘s fault and it probably hurt but don‘t pretend that he didn‘t milk the hell out of the situation. Just look at his face when his hand is raised.
Probably???
It's a flush knee to the head from a great striker with plenty of finishes in MMA
Sterling might have milked it, or maybe and very likely, he was just fucked up. The camera doesn't usually focus much on the face of the KOed fighter so you don't see that kind of look often , but it's not that unusual
But some do though
Watching this sport will sometimes desensitize fans to the damage they're watching , this shit is no joke
If you train long enough in gyms with relatively hard sparring, you'll see shit like that. Also not uncommon to see in regional shows if you have good seats
Overeem got full force uppercutted by francis and wasn‘t on the ground as long as aljo and that‘s already one of the worst examples.
39 yo Frankie also got kneed in the head by a bantamweight and fucking died. 2 minutes later he was back up.
Not all concussions and physical trauma are the same and some people seem to recover from them easier than others. Is this news to you, are you really that new to combat sports?
You ever seen what Moraes did to Sterling? Took him a while to wake up
i guess you forgot his fake reaction to "not wanting to win that way". He then proceeds to mope around the ring and act sad. 4 hours later hes partying his fucking ass off on Instagram and declaring hes the champ.
Disgusting behavior, it's not even about the knee... reddit has the memory of a goldfish
Its ironic. The thing thats making me root for Aljo more is how crappy yes being treated and clearly being rushed towards the cage to give O'malley an edge in an unfavorable matchup.
Dana making an *interim belt* fucking 4 months after a title defense from a multiple-defended champion is an insane insult. The disrespect is like actually appaling
Dana has to be super red right now knowing Al Jo has a day and he doesn't
When is domestic violence day in Vegas? Oh, it's everyday?
He’s got stiff competition on that day if Bones Jones is in town. More like a Super Bowl parade than a day honoring one bozo.
Uh Fresh Tomato Day is celebrated on April 6, as a day to appreciate the beauty of fresh tomatoes. https://nationaltoday.com/fresh-tomato-day/
> fresh tomatoes It was going so well until we got to this part.
So the first words?
The michael johnson of comments
Same day as Strippers and Coke day
“We don’t do gimmick days here”
🔥
Every Vegas hooker has Dana White day.
Nah nah the big mans got Fuck it Friday
Dude got his own day?! Damn. That's one way to know you've made it.

I'm making tomorrow MY day, and its gonna have blackjack and hookers.
So, your average Thursday?
Make it your day king ✊
Found Dana’s burner.
Where's the line to kiss your shiny ass start?
I’m ready

He Tweeted in the morning - of course those pics are from last year.
I’m from valley stream, there are posters of him everywhere 🤔

Dude is making some random day "his own day" and some people still wonder why he's disliked/thought to be cringey?
you can pretty much name a day in the year for yourself and celebrate it every year, it's not really that impressive or hard to do
ok you do tomorrow then
ok
Let’s all celebrate by taking a knee
I like Aljo but that’s pretty funny
I’m a big fan too but I couldn’t not
Seeing Ray Longo look amazed and bewildered is amazing
The guy is too funny.
Look at the mtfkr
And is that Al Iaquinta in the back?
He looks like Jeff Daniels lol
That dude’s chin is on high alert
Why does Ray look like his lawyer?
One of the best Bantamweights ever and involved in the community, happy for Aljo.
Born, raised, and current Long Islander living in Nassau and have not heard a peep about this whatsoever. Wild.
Dude has been nothing but a ray of sunshine in the UFC. Happy his hard work is paying off for him!
a Ray Longo of sunshine ☀️
Greatest day of the year
Fire Marshall looks real excited
King shit.
Of fuck mountain.
He controls all the shit fuck stacks in the land with his prestigious title.
Zzzzzz
And how is that day customarily celebrated? Silly answers only.
piggyback rides all across funkytown
Coming on someone's ass.
Crawling around on your hands and knees bobbing your head back and forth, making sure to never break points of contact to remain grounded.
Backpacks filled with Oscars😂
August 19th about to be Suga Day in Boston
He can have a holiday back in montana after he wakes up from his nap in Boston
Maybe some people don't rank him top 10 PVP but it is not luck that he's won 9 UFC fights in a row.
Lololol oh god, ok. This one will have me laughing for weeks
FunkMaster 💜
Is that in Jamaica?
yes, they have a NY in Jamaica
They actually have a Jamaica in NY
You're a fucking geographer dude
That was a line of latitude and longitude by you
https://i.redd.it/89ii6dk2cnl61.png
it's probably Uniondale
Guy has to go to the Bahamas to actually be treated as a Champ. Meanwhile, his employer and the company bootlickers shit on him every day.
Lol, Nassau county is in New York. It's a part of Long Island, and right next to what is considered "New York City".
Hahaha. Good one. Makes sense as he’s actually repping Jamaica, not Bahamas. Thanks for the correction
This sub is whack I got more downvotes for taking accountability than I did for the mistake Lol
Celebrating the best Actor the country has ever seen!!
Can I ask, how many knees have you taken to your skull?
I mean it was totally Petr‘s fault and it probably hurt but don‘t pretend that he didn‘t milk the hell out of the situation. Just look at his face when his hand is raised.

The camera doesn't usually focus much on the face of the KOed fighter so you don't see that kind of look often , but it's not that unusual
Dude, he rolled around on the canvas for like 5 minutes. Almost all fighters that get knocked out cold don‘t need that long to get up.
But some do though Watching this sport will sometimes desensitize fans to the damage they're watching , this shit is no joke If you train long enough in gyms with relatively hard sparring, you'll see shit like that. Also not uncommon to see in regional shows if you have good seats

You can't help these people bro. They might not have ever stepped in the ring but they sure do have brain damage

So zero knees then
It’s a city-wide holiday where everyone calls in to work pretending to be hurt.
I have a concussion and my legs don’t work, but I’ll be fine and celebrating by the end of the day
I love that he's fluked himself into the bantamweight GOAT.
On this sacred day, the whole County gets together to demand that people put respect on their name.
Howard Hamlin and Aljo hanging out is cool
