You heard me, guess what day is next monday?
St. Patrick's Day, damn right.
We just have a few irish pubs around but it'll be enough to get drunk as hell with an excuse.
Usually is the weekend closest to the day when we celebrate it here so for us is this weekend, it's going to be something different and awesome

if youre religious i suppose, i know most everyone will still do what they do on the 17th buttt
from wiki.
It became a feast day in the Roman Catholic Church due to the influence of the Waterford-born Franciscan scholar Luke Wadding[1] in the early part of the 17th century, and is a holy day of obligation for Roman Catholics in Ireland. The date of the feast is occasionally moved by church authorities when March 17 falls during Holy Week; this last happened in 1940 when Saint Patrick's Day was observed on 3 April in order to avoid it coinciding with Palm Sunday, and will happen again in 2008, when it shall be held on either March 14[2][3] or March 15.[4] After 2008, March 17th will not fall during Holy Week again until 2160.[5]
