St. Patrick’s Day in Sacramento

March 12, 2009 at 8:22 am 1 comment

If you’re looking for a drunken mess on St. Patrick’s Day – and who isn’t – then you’ll want to hit up the big block party on L Street outside of DeVere’s Irish Pub.  Perhaps you’ve seen this mentioned in the papers because stuffy folks who actually want to get work done on that day are upset about the road being blocked off and the day long ruckus. Toughen up folks, it’s just one day of youthful exuberance and fun. You can be a boring stuffypants the rest of the year.

For something a bit more family friendly there’s the Old Sacramento St. Patrick’s Day parade. It should involve kazoos, horses and the throwing of candy.

And there’s free corned beef and cabbage at a whole bunch of dive bars (Socal’s and Pine Cove come to mind). You really just can’t go wrong.
