On "Bob's Burgers", when is Bob and Linda's wedding anniversary?

The story behind the answer

On "Bob's Burgers," Bob and Linda's wedding anniversary is September 3rd.

The date is established in the series premiere, "Human Flesh," when Bob forgets the anniversary while dealing with a health inspector, a cannibalism rumor, and a restaurant in chaos. Linda reminds him that the date is special, and the couple eventually celebrates together at Wonder Wharf.

The episode originally aired on January 9, 2011, and introduces the Belcher family, their restaurant, and Linda's former fiancé, Hugo. The wedding date is a small detail, but it became a recurring piece of continuity and a popular fan fact. Later references also use 9/3 as the couple's anniversary.

A common mix-up is confusing the date with the show's premiere date or with Linda's past relationship with Hugo. The anniversary belongs to Bob and Linda's wedding, not their first meeting or the restaurant's opening.
