Answer: Ampersands in various print fonts can be used for the word "September"

The creator of National Ampersand Day discovered that when various fonts are used and the ampersand was substituted for most letters, it looked like the date "September 8". For example, the ampersand in "Edwardian Script" font looks like a capital "S", the ampersands in "akaHoggle", "Mistral", and "Caslon540" look like the letter "E" (used three times in the word), the ampersand in "Poppi-Laudatio" looks like the "B", and the ampersand in "Banco" script looks like the number "8". (He has not found a script with ampersands looking like the P, M, or R.) There is no real reason for this day other than the fact that the creator of the day likes ampersands and noticed that there was no day to celebrate his favourite symbol.
