2. Today is St. Patrick’s Day, celebrated every year on March 17. According to History.com, it is the saint's religious feast day and the anniversary of his death in the fifth century. The Irish have observed this day as a religious holiday for more than 1,000 years. On St. Patrick's Day, which falls during the Christian season of Lent, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon. Lenten prohibitions against the consumption of meat were waived and people would dance, drink and feast—on the traditional meal of Irish bacon and cabbage. Some local places to get some traditional Irish fare today include: The Shamrock Irish Pub & Eatery, Brew-Ligion and Spelly's Pub and Grille. Watch out for leprechauns!
