St. Patrick's Day

A little over a decade ago, an obscure law in Maine was passed that put special rules into place for alcohol consumption on St. Patrick's Day.

With the rich Irish ancestry we have here in Maine, it’s no surprise that we have plenty of great Irish pubs. But one of them is now getting national attention!

Not what we expected, but also pretty valid.

There's no better place to be than in Boston for St. Patrick's Day.

From one sober person to another: you can still live it up without feeling like you let yourself down.

Now here's a unique and memorable way to celebrate St. Patty's Day.

Any guesses?

The 1999 flick is a cult classic and has become one of the most beloved "Irish" movies of all time.

St Patrick's Day in Portland is always one of the best days of the year. Except for last year. Oh, and this year. Usually, the bars are full, people are singing and dancing in the streets, the St Paddy's Day parade goes down Commercial Street, and the city is buzzing...in more ways than one! So it was a joy to find one guy who wouldn't let a global pandemic stop his years-long tradition of playing his bagpipes for the people of Portland. Meet George, from Pine Point. George has played his bagpipes on St Patrick's Day at the iconic Miss Portland Diner for many years. With COVID, George took his gig outside and played a free concert for traffic passing by on Marginal Way. He looked great in the kilt and sounded fantastic! Thank you, George and the Miss Portland Diner for keeping the spirit of St Paddy's Day alive. I say we put George at the head of the St. Patrick's Day Parade next year!

The City of Portland made the announcement this morning via Twitter with a message from Portland's Irish American Club.

Here's your plan for the day, all planned out and ready to go!

You're able to tell when the parade ends as the line outside of Ri-Ra swells up again.

Alrighty Blimpville, it’s St, Paddy’s Day. So, AS IF we’re not rockin’ live with our favorite band from Dublin tonight!
