Just so you know, St. Patrick’s Day is a much bigger deal in the U.S. than it is in Ireland. Here it’s an excuse to drink green beer (not even when I was drinking did I indulge in that nasty concoction) and do your worst Barry Fitzgerald invocation.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day

In AA we called it Amateur Night.
