the word “hoohah” was a running gag in the early years of mad, often exclaimed by characters in the comic book issues written and edited by harvey kurtzman. its somewhat eastern european feel was a perfect fit for the new york jewish style of the magazine. kurtzman liked using yiddish expressions and nonsense words to humorous effect, and the very first story in the first issue of mad was even t-tled “hoohah!” the word’s precise origin is unknown, although it may have sprung from the hungarian word for “wow,” which is hűha 1).

hoohah! (exclaimed by several characters depicted in very early issues of mad magazine)
hoo-hah day–an annual rite observed to mourn the p-ssage of summer. celebrated in northwest suffolk county, long island ny. festivities begin after sundown and take place on rooftops of suburban homes. hoo-hah! is the proper greeting for the occasion,accompanied with the raising of ones hat off the head, or, if no hat is worn, mimicking the gesture with your hand. the phrase is also often hollered appropos of nothing, followed by smacking the head of the person nearest to you. it is considered an act of honor to invent a new beverage for the occasion, although iced tea and lemonade are favorites. heavy comsumption of alcoholic beverages is by no means traditional but always encouraged. the late author james thurber is the patron saint of the holiday, and his short story “the night the bed fell” is deemed sacred text for the general confusion and disorder essential to this holiday.
