St. Patrick's Day

Whether it's the snow and cabin fever, or the fact that St. Patrick's Day is coming up, I've found myself thinking back on some epic pub crawls I've had with friends over the years. I've always liked heading to the bar with a few buddies over kickin' back with one at home, but maybe I'm just an extrovert.

We’ve all heard there was a saint and something to do with snakes in Ireland and now we have parades and drink green beer. But what do we really know about St. Patrick’s Day?

There is no love lost for St. Patrick's Day from this author and he has plenty of reasons.

Being half Irish I will admit I celebrate St. Patrick's Day every year like many others.

How can you not enjoy corn beef and cabbage on St. Patrick's Day?  Might not be as hard to make as you thought.  The videos below make it really easy. It was Irish Americans who embraced corned beef and cabbage during St. Patrick's Day...

I have to ask, because I honestly don't know. How many of you are planning on going drinking on St. Patrick' Day? Is it because you are actually Irish? Or is it because you don't miss an opportunity to "Day Drink?" I like beer. And, I like going out for a beer...

Whether you're just a wee bit Irish, a lot Irish or not Irish at all, don't miss they St. Patrick's Day celebration in Billings.

I had the great honor to drive the station van through the Downtown Billings St. Patricks Day parade. It was a blast! The crowd was huge and festive and people came decked out in green. I think my favorite costumes were the little leprechaun's who were wearing the fiery red strap-on beards...

Apparently St. Patrick's Day isn't just about drinking, fighting and public urination (but don't get us wrong, it is about that, too).

In honor of St. Patrick's Day we all get new names! My name is Clumsy McFeverish. What is your name? Post it in the comments!

Saint Patrick's Day is right around the corner and I am getting pretty excited. Not just because I'm Irish.  Not for the drunken bar frenzy that some might participate in.  Although there's nothing wrong with that.   However, I'm excited about my dinner.  Or rather, what my dinner's going to be on St. Patty's Day.  Can you guess what it is?

The Irish car bomb (a shot of Irish whiskey and Irish cream dropped into a pint of Guinness) is a standard St. Patrick's Day cocktail, though its origins aren't commonly known.
