"Each year on the last Saturday in April, the citizens of Ocean Shores, Washington, celebrate ‘Undiscovery Day’ to commemorate the night in 1792 when British explorer George Vancouver sailed right past their harbor without discovering it.

At midnight they gather on the shore and shout ‘Hey George — over here!’"
