I <3 St. Patrick's day! I think it's because everything is green, and green is my favorite color! It's pretty cool to see so many people wearing the same color. Are there any other holidays where most people wear a certain color? I guess Valentine's Day - red/pink? My roommates and I wore black and some red/pink on Valentine's day, because one of my roommates is anti-V-day / anti-pink, but we wanted to match, and so we compromised. Haha. I think more people wear green on St. Patrick's Day than red/pink on V-day though... probably so they don't get pinched! :p
Did you know that the Chicago river is dyed
green each year for St. Patrick's Day?
