I work right beside an awesome irish bar in hamilton called slainte, myself and about ten of my friends are gonna knock off work early and head over there for the festivities. It's gonna be a gong show, can't wait. Bands and green beer all day, and since i'm on salary i'm getting paid to be there, even better. Happy St. Patty's day to everyone.............Loob O'job.

my plan is to become falling down drunk in good old irish fashion.

I generally dislike March 17th. I don't really get the whole idea other then some day that's an excuse to get drunk.. However I might go to Cieli's to see what it's all about

You might not get in unless you go super early. St. Patrick's Day on a Friday? Insanity.

I usually go out somewhere on St. Patrick's Day, but I'm fighting a head cold so I think I'll take the night off. Tomorrow night a bunch of us are going to O'Sullivan's for some karaoke so we'll celebrate a day late.

Last year I went to the Seanachie and I couldn't move in there.

I've got a night of $10 poker games ahead of me at a buddy's house...

But I have a feeling that I am going to be dragged out for lunch by a salesman and won't make it back in the afternoon.

WOO!

Keg party at my place this afternoon and my club here (an Alberta students club) along with the BC students club is cohosting a ****fest tonight at a bar.

Eastern Girl · 03-17-2006, 11:35 AM

Well, I have an exam bright and early tomorrow, so I am unable to go out tonight. It really sucks that my prof would schedule an exam on the Sat. morning following St. Patty's Day.

Tron_fdc · 03-17-2006, 11:39 AM

Ceili's is apparently sold out.

My night begins at 4, probably at the Kilt, then carries on DT somewhere around 9. Everyone else I know is starting at noon today somewhere.

Ozy_Flame · 03-17-2006, 01:04 PM

I'm going to Patty O'Leary's earlier in the evening, and then heading back to my house with my gf around 11 to really get lucky tonight..... =)

I'm wondering how much actually gets done today. Seems like everyone I talk to plans on going to some pub to get obliterated.......I'm watching the clock myself, in childish anticipation of my first pint.

I'm gonna go home and sleep. I'll probably get up at 11:00 and watch NBC's new show "Conviction" and then go right back to sleep. I'm certain that at somepoint I'll have to rush to the bathroom so something green will come out of me... stupid flu.

evman150 · 03-17-2006, 02:51 PM

Getting hammered.

That is all.

evman150 · 03-17-2006, 06:20 PM

LOL. 4:15 and I'm already a half dozen beers into things.

It's going to be quite the night.

RedMan12 · 03-17-2006, 06:47 PM

I have to pick up my woman from work at 11:30 tonight. No drinking because I'm driving! This Irish, Scottish, Danish, German is upset

Well in German class today I learned that the Deutsch don't celebrate St. Patty's... so 1/4 of you won't be too heartbroken!

Thanks dude, I heard it was a good class, I can't remember from who.
I am pretty sure I just harassed some random student from that class and got the skinny on the lecture.
