Cause no one wants to work the day after Thanksgiving.

The day's name originated in Philadelphia, where it originally was used to describe the heavy and disruptive pedestrian and vehicle traffic which would occur on the day after Thanksgiving.[5][6] Use of the term started before 1961 and began to see broader use outside Philadelphia around 1975. Later an alternative explanation was made: that retailers traditionally operated at a financial loss from January through November, and "Black Friday" indicates the point at which retailers begin to turn a profit, or "in the black".[5][7]

Because they couldn't call it kike Friday. They never spend any money and own most of the stores.

Some girl named Rebecca needs to do a death metal version with new lyrics and call it "Black Friday"
