Mister Rogers thought it would be fun to name his royal puppet King Friday XIII because so many people are superstitious about that day and he wanted to make it a fun day instead. So every Friday the 13th would be the King’s birthday, a day of celebration. And in the earliest days, when the program was live, families could anticipate a birthday party for the King.
