---quote---
Sadie Hawkins was "the homeliest gal in the hills" who grew tired of waiting for the fellows to come a courtin'.
Her father, Hekzebiah Hawkins, a prominent resident of Dogpatch, was even more worried about Sadie living at home for the rest of his life, so he decreed the first annual Sadie Hawkins Day, a foot race in which the unmarried gals pursued the town's bachelors, with matrimony the consequence. By the late 1930's the event had swept the nation and had a life of its own. Life magazine reported over 200 colleges holding Sadie Hawkins Day events in 1939, only two years after its inception. It became a woman empowering rite at high schools and college campuses, long before the modern feminist movement gained prominence.

Is a character from the Lil' Abner comic strip created by Al Capp in 1934. During its 43-year run, Lil' Abner was one of the most popular comics in the U.S. When Al Capp introduced Sadie Hawkins Day to the strip on November 15, 1937, the event became a national sensation. The poor hillbilly Sadie was "the homeliest gal in the hills," and her father worried that she would never find a husband. To find his Sadie a mate, he started a special day -- Sadie Hawkins Day -- that featured a foot race where unmarried women chased bachelors. If a woman caught one of the bachelors, the slowpoke single man would have to marry the lucky dame.

I voted NBA because both answers rely entirely on quoted material without original text.
