As expected, the day of ol' St. Patrick was awesome! 9:00am beer started at 9:18 due to some stragglers, (LARKIN, MICHELLE AND JUSTIN!!) but it was all good! This is what 9:18am beer looks like:
We made the half mile walk down to Forsyth Park first, as that is where the folks who are in the parade gather. That is also the location of the famous Forsyth Park fountain.
We then we made another half mile walk down to Parkers to get some breakfast food! After food, we made our way to the parade route to find prime positioning between where the car was parked (which was parked the night before with 72 beers in it)...
...and conveninetly located to porta pottys...and yes, Sunshine, they were green!
Savannah's St. Patrick's Day parade is the second largest in the COUNTRY! It is absolutely AWESOME! People from all over the world come in to be part of it, including New York firefighters and New York Shields - Pipes and Drums (picture below taken for Deb in New York)
Our crew included the following:
Justin and Andy
Larkin and Michelle
Bobby and his cousin Chris (to the right)
Kellie (in the hat, who is being interviewed by local media here)
And me and Krystal (Hi, that's me, Drunky McDrunk there!)
After the parade we went to one of our favorite spots, Blaine's, but it was entirely too crowded and we were all HUNGRY!! So we went and grabbed two slices at Sweet Mellisa's... absolutely delicious!
After pizza, we headed to another one of our favorite spots, The Bar Bar where my girl Christine was bar tending!
Just a side note, she is going to try out for Playboy next week...keep your fingers crossed! I am hoping to be celebrating St. Patty's at the Playboy Mansion this time next year! LOL!
After The Bar Bar it was time to go home! Before heading home we decided to take a walk through the new square that just opened up and also run through the new fountains they installed there:
It was a glorious day! We drank from 9:18am to around 7:00pm. Not a bad run! I was exhausted though! I am feeling the pain today! No hangover, but MAN do my legs, feet and back hurt! Can't wait till next year!!!!!
