What's up with St. Patrick's Day being celebrated on March 12? The parade has gone down hill here and a lot of it has to do with the location and not celebrating on the 17th.

You're referring to the Southside Parade?

You're free to celebrate it on the 17th.

This is true...but, the 17th without the parade isn't the same.
