St. Patrick´s Day


Tomorrow, as you all may know, is St.Patrick´s day.

 The Irish community in Buenos Aires (I´ve never met any of them) is organizing a parade. Actually it´s going to be the first st.Patrick´s parade in Buenos Aires, because the Irish people and the Government of the city want to prove that it´s not all about drinking,
 it´s also about marching bands, clovers and green stuff (yeah, right).
So, if you are into Irish culture, go to the parade. More info here.
If you don´t need to hide your dark intentions of drinking till you pass out, go to Reconquista street and all the area around the Kilkenny, and do your thing.
Please, if you go to the pubs at night, don´t forget to break bottles in the middle of the street, pick up a fight, and vomit in someone else´s shoes. We need to keep the tradition alive.
Have fun!

Thanks for the info, but all jokes aside, aren't the last comments slightly prejudiced or too stereotypical?

hahah so we exported some of our habits all the way south to Baires!! Dublin is like a war zone on the evening of St Patrick´s day..not too bad here in Madrid-good few natives getting wasted a few Irish stranglers and tourists!

yes, we are very open to importing habits, specially if they are destructive
thanks for your comments!

ps: You come to BA. I find madrid a little bit small.

I guess the parade lost and the dark intentions won.

I even saw a woman, dressed in green, doing a pole dance at 7:30am for a morning news show. I was having breakfast at the time.
