I'm kinda surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet.
But still I have about an hour left according to EST, thought I'd express my love for the wascally wabbit.
Today is exactly 70 years to the day of the first official Bugs Bunny short, "A Wild Hare."

Wow, it's a good thing I just bought Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout for the NES. Gives me an excuse to play through it again.

Bugs Bunny was the first really cool cartoon character. I don't know I like Bugs Bunny and all but I think I prefer Daffy Duck as a character. To me Bugs Bunny has little flaws and kind of bored me, Daffy had huge flaws but still thought he was amazing and the best thus made me laugh more especially when he got his just deserts. Also I like Porky Pig more since he was a nice guy basically and an awesome straight man character who was great at getting so annoyed, especially at Daffy, oh I guess I have throw Elmer Fudd since without him Bugs wouldn't of had such great moments. So while I think those were better and I remember more of their cartoons than I do of ones with just Bugs, but than again you needed a main star and really you couldn't do that with Porky Pig or Daffy Duck, just not as marketable, as Bugs Bunny.

First, Triple Kelly's birthday, then the 30th anniversary of "Caddyshack", and now the 70th birthday of Bugs Bunny.
This was a great day!
GAH, I had that BB video game too!

Happy Birthday, Bugs Bunny! I would have been here sooner, but I made a wrong turn at Albuquerque.

What an achievement.
But I'm just imagining Bugs Bunny shouting out at younger cartoon characters to get off his lawn.

I hate to be "THAT GUY" but Bugs first appeared in Porky's Hare Hunt in 1938. He just didn't have a name yet

He just didn't have a name yet Hence why the OP said first "official" short. porky's hare hunt is "officially" known as the first bugs bunny cartoon. Now if the OP said "first cartoon where he had the name bugs bunny" then that would be different. But the character was in 3 different shorts before he had a name. It wasn't until artist Charlie Thorson wrote the words "bugs bunny" on a model sheet that he got his name.

happy (belated) birthday!
sucks to see children now raised with superficial tween crap instead of grade A comedy like the Loony Toons

Happy birthday, you despicable rabbit.
Duck, Rabbit, Duck! has to rank in my top 3 of favorite cartoons EVER. Maybe top 2. Definitely my favorite Looney Tunes short ever.
