I heard that it is a great holiday. Sadly, I have never been to a St. Patrick festivity. Can you please explain how is it celebrated?

Please do.

[Nano]

Never heard of it.

Am I the only one?

Round here? A train journey into Liverpool and a massive Guinness drinking contest, which usually takes the form of a tour of all the Irish bars and pubs we can find in the city We've yet to make a lap of the city though

It's pretty much the same in Ireland too, everybody just gets wrecked

Everyone wears green and hammers down booze. What a wonderful world.

Don't worry about it if you're not Irish.

[Chief Grizzly]

You don't have to be Irish to enjoy getting drunk in Irish bars on St. Patrick's Day!

Yes

Don't worry about it if you're not Irish.

Well I write holiday specials on FanFiction and somebody suggested I write a St. Patrick special. Dunno...perhaps shouldn't do it?

[Viscid]

Hey matrix, get drunk and write.

I find a bunch of Paddy's to beat on.

Is Paddy actually a slur?

Last St. Patrick's day I watched some live Irish step dancing at a pub filled with pure-blooded Irish immigrants. It was like a movie. There was even 'racist' jesting about how cowardly the French were in WWII and lots of making fun of the English. The fish and chips was great.

Kansas City, Missouri has two St. Patrick's Day parades and they are both pretty wild. Haven't been to one in a while but I'm starting to feel that Guinness thirst!

To answer Mark: it's celebrated by wearing green and dousing that green w/ beer that has missed your mouth :cheers:

FUnny thing is, that on St. Pat's, everyone that pinches me for not wearing green gets some CQC to the face.


I do not drink, though.

Making fun of the french, eating fish and chips, drinking, and hanging out with pure-blooded Irish. Now that's a fuckin party :good: :good: :good:

[Mr. Clean]

Well I don't drink, but it was a blast. Also, I've been dating one of the step-dancers ever since ; )

[Captain Steve]

I don't drink, I don't own green, and fish and chips seems strangely un-kosher. Though I will watch Boondock Saints again in celebration...for like the 4th year in row...my traditions are gay.

:laugh:

The Cornish seem to embrace St Patrick's Day. Probably the Celtic connection. I'll be strolling, staggering, and - as the night goes on - spinning my way from pub to pub. Last year was a blast, a few friends of mine got glassed, but it didn't seem so bad at the time. We generally end up at a local music bar, O'Callaghan's, but it's closed this year so I can see everyone somehow materialising at my house instead. Oh dear.

[monkeyman]

Can I come down to yours?

[яedяum]

Of course you can. But only if you bring that wagon that, I notice, you draggin'.
