Celebrate π Day
at Vinatero!
this Saturday
3/14 @ 3:14pm
First of all, what is Pi and why are we celebrating it? Pi or π is one of the most important mathematical constants, approximately equal to 3.14159265358979...
It represents the ratio of any circle's circumference to its diameter. As in any community, especially the math & wine community, we look for any excuse to have a celebration. We choose March 14th (3/14) to celebrate the beauty of this great mathematical constant. We're also celebrating this day since one of us (Lisa) is a high school math teacher, has a degree in Applied Mathematics from UCLA, and is a self-proclaimed math nerd. Check out this link for more info about Pi Day.
We will ring the bell and officially start the celebration at 3:14pm. We will continue to celebrate until our regular closing time of 10pm. Also, be sure to listen out for a special mathematically themed music playlist. All songs will be math or number related.
At 4pm a contest will be held to see who's memorized the most digits of pi. Yes, you can show off to all your friends how smart you are, and maybe win a prize at the same time!
 Here are the first 1000 digits to get you started: 3.1415926535 8979323846 2643383279 5028841971 6939937510 5820974944 5923078164 0628620899 8628034825 3421170679 8214808651 3282306647 0938446095 5058223172 5359408128 4811174502 8410270193 8521105559 6446229489 5493038196 4428810975 6659334461 2847564823 3786783165 2712019091 4564856692 3460348610 4543266482 1339360726 0249141273 7245870066 0631558817 4881520920 9628292540 9171536436 7892590360 0113305305 4882046652 1384146951 9415116094 3305727036 5759591953 0921861173 8193261179 3105118548 0744623799 6274956735 1885752724 8912279381 8301194912 9833673362 4406566430 8602139494 6395224737 1907021798 6094370277 0539217176 2931767523 8467481846 7669405132 0005681271 4526356082 7785771342 7577896091 7363717872 1468440901 2249534301 4654958537 1050792279 6892589235 4201995611 2129021960 8640344181 5981362977 4771309960 5187072113 4999999837 2978049951 0597317328 1609631859 5024459455 3469083026 4252230825 3344685035 2619311881 7101000313 7838752886 5875332083 8142061717 7669147303 5982534904 2875546873 1159562863 8823537875 9375195778 1857780532 1712268066 1300192787 6611195909 2164201989
Of course we could possibly be enjoying pi-not grigio, pi-not noir, and pi-nts of beer. These specially selected wines and beers will be priced at ONLY $3.14 a glass!
Also, due to the wonderful amount of people that turn out for this party, we can't keep up with washing all the stemware. We will be providing acrylic glasses, so if you'd like to drink out of something else, then bring your own stemware.
 Please forward this e-mail to all those who may appreciate Pi Day: mathematicians, scientists, or anybody who has ever had to calculate the area or circumference of a circle.
See you this Saturday, 3/14 @ 3:14pm
Be there or be square!
