What to do for St. Patricks weekend?

hurling11

Hi, first time starting a post so not sure if this is the right place to put it but please bear with me. I am looking for any suggestions for what to do for the weekend of the 17th, besides the obvious parade. My friends have put me in charge of planning it. We are an active group of people who would drink as much as anybody. The problem comes when we try do something during the day, a mixture of males/females, all around 23, boys always expect the girls to organise something, girls think we only give out when they do, last time we went for a walk around stephens green(i feel we had right to give out). I know this is very vague but anything will help.

Drink. Fornicate. Wear protection.

Yeah,what do people usually do for paddys day? I remember last year I thought to myself i'll definitely never walk through dublin city on paddys day again.****in people.i would like to spend the day in the pub though

On a saturday :mad: liked getting the day off.

I usually take a roadtrip somewhere and avoid pubs, there's rugby on that day too, and its on a saturday, so thats like paddys day, xmas eve, stephens day, the heineken cup final and a big sports day all joined together in one super drinking day megazord or something.

Wallow in self pity while masturbating in the corner of the room. I already got my corner booked off the lovely Mexican family I share my bedroom with.

AH is never the right place to ask a serious question.

Play hurling?

Sorry, I don't know Cork well enough to suggest any good activities there.

talkinyite

The Guinness storehouse is good on paddys day.

play drunk hurling/gaelic football.... everytime someone scores a point the other team have to down a pint if they score a goal the other team have to down a shot.

one team wears a green jersey with white shorts and the other team wears a white shirt with green shorts and both teams wear leprachaun hats and ginger beards.


that would be some sight to see a bunch of ginger headed irish drunks dressed as leprachauns playing hurling or gaelic football.

lol your right it would cost less to go abroad. i wonder if VFI will be bitching about having less customers this year while still jacking up the price of a pint to €6 - €7 euros on paddy's day.

How about a trip to Croke Park for the All Ireland club finals? Watch the hurling and leave before the football starts as it can make you sad!

That's my plan...but I'll wait for the football

You could honour St Patrick by going around your neighbourhood and restoring Catholicism. You'll just need your priest uniform, an alibi from the bishop and some lube.

I will be going for a cure after a long and protracted 4 day battle with the booze and the bookies!

If Cheltenham doesn't hurry up and arrive I think I'm gonna explode with the excitement (in a spontaneous combustible and not a jizz in my pants type of way)

Argue with gardai about what technically constitutes an open container of alcohol and watch drunken 12 year olds disgrace us all

Surely the order should be Drink. Wear protection. Fornicate.

No point wearing protection after fornicating.

Something for the entire weekend? Maybe just go drinking on Paddy's Day and then on the Sunday try the crazy golf in Dundrum on the Sunday?

Don't forget the obligatory novelty leprechaun hats.

You're already bringing women. Less of this trying lark. Just put your penis in one of them.

I'm going to make something.

Barricade yourself into the house and wait for it to be over. Don't leave for at least 3 days, or until the streets have been cleaned of vomit and broken glass.

Karona

I'll be in Lanzarote so I really don't give a $hit what you are getting up to OP. Sorry but it's true.

Is there any kind of boards beers on Paddy's.
This will be the first year living in a house by my self so kinda want to go out.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Do something special. Throw a party, go out on the lash better than staying in to be honest, can be quite a boring day if not going somewhere even if it doesn't mean going drinking.

TV is cac that day except for watching the parade, but since it falls on a Saturday you probably won't be too lost as to what to do, loads of things to do on a Saturday!! So basically St paddy's day won't be treated as a bank holiday until the following monday!

Parade, but this time you can join John Giles in his celebration of hard graft and honesty of effort.
