For you super smarties out there celebrating Mole Day, we salute you with the closest thing we had to a mole in BattleBlock Theater: Groundhog. What is Mole Day actually?
“Celebrated annually on October 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m., Mole Day commemorates Avogadro’s Number (6.02 x 1023), which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Mole Day was created as a way to foster interest in chemistry.”
