I know many people have different views about St Patrick's Day and I want to know your opinions about it and how you celebrate it!
Who the heck is St. Patty?
"Saint Patricia of Naples is an Italian virgin martyr and saint. Tradition states that she was noble; she may have been related to the Roman Emperor. Some sources say that she was a descendant of Constantine the Great." (The great tome of knowledge that is Wikipedia) I highly doubt the noble St. Patricia would want her name sullied with what's become of the feast day of St. Paddy a.k.a. St. Patrick.
Also, he doesn't "get crunk". He drinks maybe one guiness on that day and that's it. Even my extended family in Ireland don't understand why Americans get drunk and are all "kiss me I'm Irish!". It's really offensive to them, and I can see why.
