Police officers in Philadelphia were first to link Black Friday to the post-Thanksgiving period in the 1950s. Large crowds of tourists and shoppers came to the city the day after Thanksgiving for the Army-Navy football game, creating chaos, traffic jams and shoplifting opportunities. Police officers in the city weren't able to take the day off work and instead had to work long shifts to control the carnage, coining the phrase Black Friday to refer to it.

It's dark outside when people go to shop
