St. patricks day

+St. patricks day was first celebrated on march 17th, 1782. St. patrick who was in a clover patch on top a hill in Ireland was extremely drunk and passed out from the night before. when he woke to 20 to 30 lepricons around him drinking and partying, so he woke up and started drinking and partying with these lepricons.then they all walked down in town and started getting the towns people to party, next thing you know everyone in town is drunk, passed out, covered in clovers, and robbed. the lepricons used St. patrick to gain the trust of the towns people, got them so drunk they passed out, then they robbed them, and put green clovers on every one, they left a note saying "every year we'll come back on the 17th and if people aint wearing green or clovers and drinking, we will rob you again."so the tale is if you dont wear green or clovers, and drink on St. patricks day you end up passed out and robbed. so every year since the Irish and catholics and anyone else has wore green or clovers to keep the lepricons at bay.
