Chandler#81 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I've carried my love of the holiday from my WNY roots to all 9 states I've lived in. For sure, the south doesn't embrace it like us 'Yankees' do, but I've 'made it happen' anyway. Today, my favorite pub here in Chattanooga is going all out. Of course they're offering Corned Beef & Cabbage and have a river of green draft beer for sale -cheap! But have added a couple great touches! They hired a Bag-Piper, complete with Kilt, the entire female staff will dress like Catholic School girls and they hired a midget! He's all dressed up like the Notre Dame mascot and goes around kickin' people in the shins then runs away! LOL! I'm gonna start a midget-pitchin' contest tonight! Hope he doesn't mind too much... Erin Go Bragh!
Wooderson Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Probably gonna head to Dwyer's Irish Pub on Webster St. (North Tonawanda). It gets pretty crazy on St. Patty's Day.
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 a trek to the old Morrissey's in South Buffalo was always good.
Lt. Dan's Revenge Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Probably gonna head to Dwyer's Irish Pub on Webster St. (North Tonawanda). It gets pretty crazy on St. Patty's Day. That's where I'll be. Drowning myself in Guinness & Jameson.
Chandler#81 Posted March 17, 2010 Author Posted March 17, 2010 Great to hear about NT! I'm a 'Jack as well. Is Ava's still on Webster St? I'm more of an Oliver Street drunk, myself..
linksfiend Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 a trek to the old Morrissey's in South Buffalo was always good. It's Doc Sullivan's now and will probably be a stop on my crawl.
el Tigre Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I'm gonna eat corned beef and cabbage and wear green underwear. That's as wild as I get anymore.
Chef Jim Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I'm gonna eat corned beef and cabbage and wear green underwear. That's as wild as I get anymore. Is the underwear green before or after eating the CB&C? If it's after I suggest finding a new restaurant. BTW my diet doesn't call for CB&C which really, really sucks because I love that stuff!

Chef Jim Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 One plate shouldn't hurt. All in moderation bro! One plate??? I blow the moderation on the weekends. The less I eat/drink during the week the more I can eat/drink on the weekend.
Just Jack Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I watched a building being ripped down, and then I'm going hiking after 5pm today.
Chef Jim Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I watched a building being ripped down, and then I'm going hiking after 5pm today. I thought you wanted to live forever. Just watch for low flying planes during your hike.
RayFinkle Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Probably gonna head to Dwyer's Irish Pub on Webster St. (North Tonawanda). It gets pretty crazy on St. Patty's Day. I used to hang out there back in 1999-2001. Tell Greg I said "hello".
Just Jack Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I thought you wanted to live forever. Just watch for low flying planes during your hike. I figure I should be able to hear it crashing through the trees before it hits me.

Erin Go Bragh! Preparing parmesan chicken, a can of drained and rinsed wax beans, a fruit compote, and bread-machine bread. Nothing green. I went to the bars on St. Pat's all my life. But the self-serving idiots here in OH voted to ban smoking, and I haven't set foot in one since.
Wooderson Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Great to hear about NT! I'm a 'Jack as well. Is Ava's still on Webster St? I'm more of an Oliver Street drunk, myself.. Yea, Ava's is still there. Can't say I go there very often, I'm more of a Crazy Jakes and Dwyers kinda guy. I used to hang out there back in 1999-2001. Tell Greg I said "hello". Haha great place...I'll be sure to tell Greg that RayFinkle said hello lol.
stevestojan Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I'm not drinking today because it's St. Patrick's day. That's for amateurs. I'm drinking today because I'm a drunk from Buffalo, NY and that's what I do on Wednesdays.
Chef Jim Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Let's see I got in the office at 7:00am and it's now nearly 8:00pm without a true break. Ya-!@#$ing-hoo.
