March 17th can be as much of a celebration for some as Mardi Gras is for others. It is a holiday that celebrates Irish roots. Similar to Saint Valentine’s Day and the reason that it is celebrated is that Saint Patrick was believed to have died on March 17th and that is why celebration takes place. Saint Patrick is associated with anything Irish that is green, gold, lucky, and shamrocks.
For many Americans we might not have very strong Irish ancestral roots but people still like to celebrate the holiday. So if you plan on celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, fear the green beer. All we are saying is plan safe have a designated driver and a plan for the night.
