CAGiversary!
the title says it all. Guinness is attempting to gather 1 million signatures as part of Proposition 3-17 to make St. Patrick's Day an official US holiday. The goal is to gather the signatures by midnight march 16, and then submit Proposition 3-17 to congress.

Slainte...!
 
Not true you should see unofficial St. Pat's here in Champaign. Or at least what it used to be before they had a thousand and one cameras here to scare people off.
 
I will only sign it if they lower the legal drinking age to 16 on St. Patrick's Day. Other then that, the holiday has no effect on me.
 
Eh, this proposal doesn't include a ban on American beers on St. Patrick's Day, nor does it make it illegal to dye beers green, wear dumbass t-shirts, shamrocks, or leprechaun hats.

fuck that.

It must be the snow that makes people from New England ignorant about other places.

Savannah, GA's attendance beats that of Chicago, Boston or New York. At one point, they were the 3rd largest actual parade in the world.

New Orleans has a pretty big parade too. It's a lot of fun.

I don't think anyone besides drunken bastards give a fuck about this "holiday".

And the largest Patrick's Day in the country in in Holyoke Mass, and it is a shity parade that gets all the fuckers around to have an excuse to be a fucktard to everyone.

And that's not even remotely true.

Largest parade (participants): New York City

Largest parade (attendees): Savannah, GA

Seconded. The amount of crap we're able to sell during St. Patrick's Day at Walgreens is embarrassing. I go into work Sunday and they've got three end stands full. By the next time I work (following Sunday), it's empty and in the process of being refilled. Are people really that interested in shitty green, cotton cabbie hats?

The all time worst item is the "I'm not Irish but KISS ME anyway!" button
 
If Patrick Swayze "One of the greatest actors of his time" dies soon they should combine the two days.

Make it St. Patrick's Swayze Day! :D
