The 2021 Didgeridoo Attacks, often called The Day of It All by locals, were a series of terrorist attacks carried out and coordinated by terrorist BouBou, against the City of Didgeridoo on October 17, 2021. The first attack happened at 6:13, where a truck bomb parked on Gooseberry Drive, next to the RBJ Corp Building, was detonated. Three minutes later, 2 car bombs were detonated across the street at Boulmer Plaza, nearly collapsing the building and setting it on fire. Seconds later, At least 6 explosions happened at the under-construction Kingsway Stadium. At 6:36, BouBou stole an oil tanker and crashed it into the north side of Gooseberry Apartments. He left a timed explosive in the cab, which failed to ignite the tanker after being removed from the truck.

In all, 288 people were killed, making it the deadliest bombing in the country and the second deadliest terrorist attack in the Americas, behind the September 11 Attacks in the United States. 269 of these deaths occurred at the explosion and fire at Boulmer Plaza. Injury estimates range from 3,000 to 3,500. Didgeridoo has has a history of bombings in its downtown area from unusually anonymous perpetrators, although the bombings are not thought to be related to any previous attacks. The RBJ Corp building had already been bombed in 2004.
The only known perpetrator of the attack is an unidentified white male, using the alias 'BouBou'. The Military Intelligence Bureau (MIB) suspects that 'potentially over 50' people could've worked on the bombings. Investigations have followed extremely few leads since the beginning, and the MIB is starting to be resented by the public due to their failure to produce any meaningful information the preparation and background of the attacks. The Central Intelligence Agency of the United States has, almost aggressively, offered several times to help with investigations. The MIB continues to refuse to accept any offers from international agencies.
Later in the day, 2 beloved members of the community, Helen Feebee, librarian at Didgeridoo Central Libary, and the Florist at a flower shop in Old Town, were kidnapped. It is not clear whether their disappearances are related to the attacks.
