what the hell is pentecost ?

I think it has something to do with Jesus and the Holy Spirit and flames on heads in the Bible or something. The important thing is it's always on Sunday and Monday (like Easter) and the Monday is a free day

Is it safe to say Switzerland is the 7th hockey nation, after the big 6?

Yes, it's religious  

 

Not sure if it's catholic though, it might not be, which would explain why a catholic country doesn't have it  (although I do remember being in Brazil and seeing advertisements about it.... @thiago_simoes @vinipereira Hello to the ice hockey thread, can you tell us if Pentecoste is a thing in Brazil?  )

I have no idea what this is about, to be honest. We will have a national holiday about Corpus Christi in a week, but I have no idea what this one is about either. I just enjoy the day off.
