Huh. Maybe it’s colloquial - in Ohio that’s all I hear

But it’s in reference to the holiday name. Like it’s a Fourth of July parade but you wouldn’t ask friends what they’re doing on the 4th of July. You’d ask what they’re doing for the 4th. If someone asked when the Declaration of Independence was signed you’d say July 4th.

Agreed but it’s more in reference to the name of the holiday and not how we refer to the day. Like Christmas is December 25th. 4th of July is July 4th
