It's St. Patrick's Day! They say that St. Patrick banished all of the snakes from Ireland. There are still no snakes there to this day.
St. Patrick is the Patron Saint of Ireland, even though he was born in Britain. This is very similar to how I am the Patron Saint of the Green Bay Packers.
Every day, the world consumes around 5.5 million pints of Guinness, but on St. Patrick’s Day, they drink 13 million. That should be in the Guinness Book of World Records, or at least the World Book of Guinness Records.
Ireland is known as "The Emerald Isle," which is why you are supposed to wear green on St. Patrick's Day. It also explains why parade routes follow the yellow brick road. I may be thinking of The Emerald City.
Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone!
