The best St. Pat's Days were when we lived in Chicago. The parade[noon] would be the unnofficial end of the work day. Now, they always hold them on Saturday. My very temperate drinking Eyetalan father, would love to come to visit w/ my very Irish mother. It was one of the few times I would ever see him get drunk.
nd, If I could remember it, I think one of my favorite memories would be the SPD I spent in Chicago. Wound up at a bar on Division called the Lodge. If you've been to it, YKWITA.
ChipS, When I worked for a Chicago law firm we would convene on Division Street after work on Fridays and The Lodge was one of the stops. I have been there many times as recently as this past summer. It was one of the bars we hit for my going away[to Wisconsin] party in the Fall of 1983.
Division Street bars were the setting for the flick, Looking For Mister Goodbar.

Great place. When I was there, there were a couple of cops who'd flown in from NYC b/c they preferred spending SPD @ the Lodge.
