Anyone got plans?
I've got my Cabbage, Potatoes, and Cornbeef ready. Saturday the wife and are going to the Parade in Wilmington,de. Going to St Peters church for $10 mugs all you can drink! :sly
at the bar all weekend to watch the tournament
not really into st pattys day so much as it filled with douchbag whipper snappers trying to show off their drinking prowess...kind of like a mini new years but almost worse
Yup, that was my only hesitation going to the drinkfest. I drink often :paranoid , but all the people who go out boozing St P's day are amateurs
Any holiday that revolves around drinking is fine with me. People who 'show off' how much they can drink are idiots, but that isn't going to stop me from doing what I do best.
it wont stop me but its an annoyance factor that i wish i didnt have to deal with...unfortunately the local bar i go to has a "st pattys day weekend" with specials and celebratuions fri sat and sun so i gotta deal with that madness all weekend not just on st pattys day
Gonna be in upstate PA with the woman and her niece and husband at some lodge all weekend. There is a pub in the lodge, so I am assuming I'll be in the Pub somewhere around 60 hrs this weekend. I just hope they have decent beer on tap. :yay
I am actually having my bachelor party this weekend, on St. Patty's day.
itinerary is this:
Shoot guns in the morning
Bet on horses in afternoon
Shady K-town Steak house in evening
Shuttle bus takes around Hollywood bars at night.
i got a bachelor party next weekend. me and my boys couldn't fathom mixing both occasions on one weekend. we'd rather get smashed for st. patty's and smashed the following weekend for the bachelor party. boo on you for not taking advantage of that. shooting guns though makes up for it somewhat
st. pattys is my birthday. i haven't remembered anything past noon for about 10 years now.
Oblivion.

excuses to get shteinfaced galore!
I'll be having birthday cake for my kid. Getting loaded probably isn't on the list of party games.
ummm.... putting together the crib? :paranoid

what is this world coming to? getting shteinfaced at the church!
actually, not a bad idea - get shteinfaced, farg some chick (who also went for $10 all-u-can drink beer), then go confess.
why not rename this holiday "get extreamly drunk and take 5 years off your life day" and stop the nonsense of "st. patrick" or whoever that fairy boy alter boy was.

I can't celebrate St. Patty's Day for the second straight year. I have to go out Sunday morning and be part of Op4(dressing like Haji and shooting American soldiers.)

Happy birthday, matt. Drink like a champion today.
I'm not a fan of St. Patricks day. Brings all the shteinheads out of the woodwork.
The parade was canceled, we're leaving soon just to hit up the kegs. I will say Carbombs for breakfast are yummy :yay
So does Cinco de Mayo but that doesn't mean I don't get shteinfaced just the same and enjoy myself regardless of the iceholes around me.
Besides - it's a Saturday, it's St. Patrick's Day and there's tournament games on all day. It really doesn't get much better than this, Dio.
Erin go bragh, indeed.
Drunk
My red faced mick of an Irish roomate has been MIA since this morning. I'm sure he'll be okay.....
I'm on my third Guinness at the moment and I'm just getting ready to head to the bar.
Have a safe and vomit-free holiday everyone!
:yay
I'm drinking Green Tea. :yay
farging nerds.
If I pinched a green loaf, would that be considered poetic?
No.

I'd also like to point out that last night I was banned from a bar for life.
What did you do Sarge?
He refused to believe it wasn't a gay bar, kept hitting on the bouncers.
One of the pubs I go to had a line to get in on St. Patty's Day. I walked up and was stopped by the bouncer who told me I had to stand in line. The owner was inside but his wife was manning a beer tap right next to the entrance. Anyway, I looked over to her and said, 'I have to stand in line to get in here??" She just shrugged and said, 'you're no different than any other customer.'
I just laughed and said 'yeah, I'll stand in line - for sure!,' left, and went across the street back to my usual spot.
Yesterday I stopped by the bar and had a little chat with the owner. He had no idea what happened and was farging pissed off. His wife was back in the kitchen and he yelled for her to come out. He asked her if what I said was true - she said 'yes' and he told her she was a farging stupid funhole for telling locals to wait in line with the rest of the riff-raff spring breakers.
He apologized to me after screaming at her for about 5 minutes and gave me a "chip" which entitles me to come in any night and drink for free.
Great story Rome, i was hoping he'd just slap her in front of you for your viewing pleasure.

Actually, what happened was less than spectacular. I was shooting in my Sunday night pool league. We were shooting at an "away" game at one of the other bars that's in our league. After the game, me and a couple guys on my team decided to stay and shoot a little while longer. After a couple of games, all the lights in the front half of the bar (where the pool table are) are turned off and all that's left are the table lights. Didn't really bother me, but this one girl on my team didn't want to sit in the dark. So I went to the bar and got a drink and asked the bartender if she could turn a few of the lights back on so that we could see.
She turned a couple lights on and went back behind the bar. Then the owner went over and turned the lights back off. I told him I asked the bartender to turn them on and said that we didn't like sitting in the dark. His reply was "It's my bar and I'll do what I want." So I told my friends to grab their stuff and leave. Then I called him a fleshpop and told him that he sucks at customer service.
So as I'm gathering my stuff he tells me I should leave and I said "What the farg do you think I'm doing?" So he told me to never come back. Then I called him a few more unpleasantries, grabbed my cue and my drink and walked towards the door. When I got to the door he told me I couldn't take my drink outside and I turned around and raised my glass to him, said "Here's to you fargface." took a big swig and then threw it on the ground.
Immature? Yeah, probably. But I don't care. Dude was a fleshpop and deserved far worse than a broken glass and a small puddle to clean up.

bravo sarge :yay
Sounds like a guy who won't be in business much longer. He sounds like an utter ass.
Bar owners somehow get away with that shtein and stay in business all the time.
Yeah, this dude's bar has been open for years and it will continue to be. It's a military town and if there's one thing this place isn't short on, it's Marines eager to drink. The thing about it that pisses me off is that nearly every bar owner in this town (or any other military town) does crap like this. There is no such thing as "customer service" around here because for every customer that a bar around here might lose, there's at least 5 more new Marines just getting here that'll fill in the gap. Dude turned the lights off because he's trying to save a few pennies on the electric bill and the only person that will feel the effects of my leaving the bar last night is the bartender because the owner ended up costing her atleast 10 more bucks in tips. And probably a good shagging as well.
So he did her a huge favor, and she should forever be in his debt.
You're all funny.
A rough account of my St. Patrick's Day:
Picked my friends up at 11 am, brought them back to my place and we started drinking. Car bombs, Bud Light, and Jameson shots.
At 2 pm, headed to the Dropkick Murphys (http://www.dropkickmurphys.com) concert at Boston University's hockey arena, a 10-minute walk from my house. The first opening band was OK, the second was some white-boy reggae shtein. I led the booing of them off stage. Dropkick came on and, as they do at 99% of their concerts, opened with BC's fight song. BC-BU is an insane hockey rivalry (SI named it the most heated rivalry in American sports a few years ago) so getting to hear our fight song played in their arena would've been awesome anyway, but 100X more so given the fact that we'd knocked them out of the Hockey East conference tournament the night before.
I continued drinking the bottle of Jameson I'd snuck in. The girl I was with got me a beer. We started making out.
I think the concert ended around 5, but I'm not really sure. By around 6:45 I was at the TD Banknorth Garden to go to the Hockey East championship game but still had to scalp a ticket. Luckily my friend had bought one for me and was already inside, but when I waited by the gate to meet her the cops told me not to even bother coming in because I was too drunk. I understood that this meant I had to find a different gate to enter, but drunk logic also dictated to me that I needed to buy another ticket rather than simply calling my friend and telling her to meet me at a different location. I ended up having to pay my friend $40 for a ticket I didn't use.
We won 4-2 over New Hampshire. Hockey East champs, 10 wins in a row. farging awesome. More beer and chicken fingers were consumed.
I left but it was an hour and a half before I could get ahold of any of my friends, at which point I headed all the way back downtown to some bar half a block from the farging arena where I'd been anyway. Me, the aforementioned girl, and one of her friends left to go to another bar. Upon getting there I saw that it was a $20 cover and refused to pay any more than the $8 that was in my pocket. Her friend covered the other $12 for me. More shots, more beer, and more sloppy drunken making out ensued. Some French dude asked me if I knew where to buy coke. At some point I went upstairs to heckle a group of UNH fans I'd spotted and upon returning had no clue where my friends were. I tried calling the girl I was with but no answer. Bar closed. No clue where my friends were. Couldn't get a cab and too far to walk home. Slept in an ATM stall until the T started back up again.
well done
check your cornhole
