I don't know a whole lot of September birthdays among my friends or family. On my high school's drill team, I was one of the 5 officers. And 4/5 had August birthdays, and two of us had the exact same birthday, along with our drill team director and one other teammate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-common-is-your-birthday#post-160271 Wed, 16 May 2012 12:23:32 +0000 DillonLion 160271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: Ha that is crazy!
