Happy square root day! I think I'll celebrate by eating a root, such as a carrot.

So that year we should celebrate the 45th day of the 45th month?

Wouldn't it be the 5th day of the 5th month in 2025?

I will be "rooting" for Villanova tonight.
At my age, a "Life In Prison" sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Yep. We'll shorten some months and make the 45th really long. I like 4/9/16 better. 3 consecutive square roots.

Only if you deal in two-digit years, as described in the OP, though someone complained about that. Miplet suggested 2025 as a perfect square four-digit year, which requires the month/day combination of 45/45 to keep with the theme.

I would take the UNC side of that if you like...
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

I already have a wager on UNC but my heart is rooting for Villanova.

I had potatoes today, a stem, I know, but most people think they are a root.
