The term 'Black Wednesday' is used for Thanksgiving Eve because the day after Thanksgiving was often referred to as 'Black Friday', so simply put the term was applied similarly to the day before Thanksgiving. The term Black Friday came to fruition as result of the heavy amount of traffic that was common place as result of it being such a busy shopping day and being an extremely stressful and chaotic experience like the Stock Market crash of 1929, i.e. 'Black Tuesday'.
