 Australians celebrated Anzac Day, commemorating the centenary of the landing at Gallipoli in 1915. Thousands participated in dawn services and memorial services to honor those who served and sacrificed their lives. The tradition of two-up coin games was also observed, with many pubs and clubs hosting events. However, some critics argue that the game is illegal gambling and should be banned. Despite this, many Australians see it as a harmless way to pass time and socialize.
