The Wearing of the Green in Savannah

On St. Patrick’s Day, you can expect to hear “Erin go Bragh” in New York, Boston or Chicago. But if you’re looking to celebrate the day, we’d like to suggest a warmer alternative with a smaller-town feel: Savannah. As Armed With Passport notes, “I would have never guessed in a million years that Savannah, Georgia would have a great Saint Patrick's Day Parade and Festival.”

As observed by Debbietje: “I know March 17th is St. Patrick's Day. I know you should probably wear some green, unless you want to get pinched. I know that corned beef and cabbage is more than likely what you're going to eat today, and that you will definitely have some green beer. Who doesn't know this? What ‘I’ didn't know is that in Savannah Georgia, St. Patrick’s Day is treated somewhat as a "National Holiday.”

Vampirefan also had a more laid-back, but fun experience. “The best part of the trip was just being here during St. Patty’s Day. It is just so much fun to get caught up in all the things that are going on. It is such a party atmosphere without being too wild.”

Wherever you are, be sure to enjoy the holiday.
