That's an Irish-American tradition rather than being specifically Irish (corned beef and cabbage is not an Irish dish). I would have said that St. Patrick's Day is more Irish-American. :)

In fact, the entire revival of St. Patrick's Day was by Irish immigrants in the U.S., which was then re-exported to Ireland.

Any excuse to have a party you know,The streets of Boston will be a mess to clean up tonight. :lol: I wonder if the green beer comes back up green.

Something I realized this morning:

Pinching someone just because they're not wearing a certain color to celebrate a holiday they most likely don't know why they should be celebrating in the first place: Socially acceptable, not rude at all.

Not making eye contact: Not socially acceptable, considered rude.
