Well there's always Euler's number (e ~ 2.7182818.....) to look forward to. And as an added bonus you could go with either 271 or 272 Plus it fits in the obscure (i.e., nerds only) category. Please note: This forum is in no way officially associated with Lockn' Festival or its promoters.

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.
What happens if I take both?

Jeez Louise! You guys try and keep up. 316 is our favorite, well one of our favorite, grades of Stainless Steel.
It was a similar countdown update last year that made TOO and myself realize how much we had in common professionally.Type 316 is an austenitic chromiumnickel stainless steel containing molybdenum. This addition increases general corrosion resistance, improves resistance to pitting from chloride ion solutions, and provides increased strength at elevated temperatures. Properties are similar to those of Type 304 except that this alloy is somewhat stronger at elevated temperatures.
Corrosion resistance is improved, particularly against sulfuric, hydrochloric, acetic, formic and tartaric acids; acid sulfates and alkaline chlorides. Type 316L is an extra-low carbon version of Type 316 that minimizes harmful carbide precipitation due to welding. Typical uses include exhaust manifolds,
furnace parts, heat exchangers, jet engine parts, pharmaceutical and photographic equipment, valve and pump trim, chemical equipment, digesters, tanks, evaporators, pulp, paper and textile processing equipment, parts exposed to marine atmospheres and tubing. Type 316L is used extensively for weldments where its immunity to carbide precipitation due to welding assures optimum corrosion resistance.

From wikipedia...
Piphilology is the practice of memorizing large numbers of digits of pi,[181] and world-records are kept by the Guinness World Records. The record for memorizing digits of pi, certified by Guinness World Records, is 70,000 digits, recited in India by Rajveer Meena in 9 hours and 27 minutes on 21 March 2015.[182] In 2006, Akira Haraguchi, a retired Japanese engineer, claimed to have recited 100,000 decimal places, but the claim was not verified by Guinness World Records.[183]
One common technique is to memorize a story or poem in which the word lengths represent the digits of pi: The first word has three letters, the second word has one, the third has four, the fourth has one, the fifth has five, and so on. An early example of a memorization aid, originally devised by English scientist James Jeans, is "How I want a drink, alcoholic of course, after the heavy lectures involving quantum mechanics."[181] When a poem is used, it is sometimes referred to as a piem. Poems for memorizing π have been composed in several languages in addition to English.[181] Record-setting π memorizers typically do not rely on poems, but instead use methods such as remembering number patterns and the method of loci.[184]
A few authors have used the digits of pi to establish a new form of constrained writing, where the word lengths are required to represent the digits of pi. The Cadaeic Cadenza contains the first 3835 digits of pi in this manner,[185] and the full-length book Not a Wake contains 10,000 words, each representing one digit of pi.[186]

I would think the first 3 letter word would always be "pie".
