I am not sure of the year this happened, the term Kelly Day is named after a Chicago Mayor who learned the city Firefighters worked 24 hours on duty with 24 hours off duty all year around with no weekends or consecutive days off.

Mayor Kelly decided that due to the work schedule the firefighters should get a shift off, to give them a three day break, known as a Kelly Day.
