So, are you going to wear green tomorrow, or MU paraphernalia? Are you going to drink like rock-stars all day, or are you going to find a MU watching site and just drink there? Stupid second (third) round games on St. Patrick's day.
wait, you don't have St.Pat's-themed MU gear?? (I almost wrote "Irish"-themed, but that just sounds wrong).
j/k, I do but it's a giant sweatshirt. MU stuff @ the game, probably will layer over St. Pat's gear and transform after the game :)
I may only be 28, but I cannot drink like I could when my drinking schedule was pestered by attending classes, so I will be sitting on a friends couch enjoying beers at a casual pace all day while waiting for the MU game to start.
Oh year, wearing my classic Marquette, shamrock long sleeves.
MU Rah Rah.
Out for lunch/drinking with the kids in the afternoon. Back home for the game, corned beef, beer with some friends, then adults only back out for a while.
Clothing...some sort of combination. I am not a big team colors wearer anyway.

MU gear at the St. Patty's day parade in St. Paul. As far as drinking goes, requisitioned some Jameson last night. The neighborhood Irish pub opens for breakfast tomorrow!!!! Might also need to stop in at Alary's tomorrow too. St. Paul Warrior, do you plan to hit DT St. Paul tomorrow?
Green MU gear is blasphemy. even worse is the Marquette gear with the Shamrock on it. THIS IS NOT NOTRE DAME!!!!!!!
God I hope ND loses today
I always wear Marquette gear on Marquette gameday. It trumps everything. All the Irish I need will be in my pint glass.

Blue and gold make green, and go well with beer. I don't see your problem.

It's like we're brothers from another mother.
I'm German. We don't need a special day to drink beer.
I will be rockin' the gold shirt.

It may be so, but damn this shirt has weathered well over the past 9 years.

Notre Dame doesn't have a unique claim to shamrocks or leprechauns. The Irish do. I'll bet there are more kids of Irish descent at MQ than ND.
There is no way I'm wearing anything but Blue and Gold on gameday.
ahem...
unnatural carnal knowledge the Irish.

This +1000000000
The Irish have a day and us Germans have a month.
For those you who were not around, Al McGuire's break-out year was 1966-67. It was the year the then (and now) Warriors, who were expected to crash and burn in the first round, made it to the NIT finals in the "old" Garden. (Actually, it was the second Garden, there having been one before, which, rumour has it, burned down.)
Anyway, the Warriors unexpectedly made it to the finals, with Al being the toast of Queens, if not all five boroughs. The game, which the Warriors lost, after having a commanding half-team lead, was played on a Saturday afternoon, St. Patrick's Day, after the parade, and about eight hours after the bars opened to serve green beer.
Need I provide any additional details ... ?!
I really regret letting my wife convince me to throw away my green Murphy's Irish Pub "Marquette: It's time to drink green beer" Miller Lite t-shirt from 2000. Saturday is setting up pretty well for 18 holes in the morning, MU game in the afternoon, puking by midnight.
And Notre Dame does not own the color green or all things Irish. Michigan State can claim green 10 times over Notre Dame.

I played 18 on Thursday. I tried to convince my wife that it was crucial to MU's success that I play another 18 on Saturday. Fail.

I think we are all curious as to what Warriorchick looks like. I had something along the lines of Pocahontas in mind until she said she was German. So I guess more like Heidi Klum?
IM GONNA THROW ON GREEN MAN, AND IM GONNA RUN ON THE FIELD

I've still got mine. Only wear it once a year so it's in good shape.
As for today, tighty whiteys and a 30 pack of keystone light.
Wear whatever you want, so long as it fits. You don't need some stupid "ironic" screen print or color combination to make a point.

Green Beer? Who would drink that?

Keep your pants on, fellas. Even though I would consider myself reasonably well-preserved, I was class of '84, so I am a pretty old broad by now.
But yeah, closer to Heidi than Pocahontas.

Should have started at 36 & settled for 18.
Blue & gold tomorrow. No green.

Are you from Cleveland? ;)
Pants? On Saint Patrick's Day?
I thought I'd get the blue-and-gold effect with woad and a bucket of beer. Of course, with the Guinness, it trends toward black-and-blue.
Only gold. Thankfully I have a great excuse not to wear green on St. Patrick's Day. Not Irish, of course.

Oh but I'm Irish & German, so I have that whole spread covered.
and, *ahem*, everyone's Irish on St. Patty's day, remember? so no copping out on not wearing green.
And MU in green is not an abomination any more than MU in pink is an abomination ... oh wait ... :D
As for drinking, dang, I hope I can snag a bloody mary tomorrow (today??) morning at brunch somewhere in Louisville! then I will have to curb it for the MU game, gotta be on top of my fan-game :)

Opened The Irish Pub in Oconomowoc @ 10AM in the same Warrior shirt (procured @ the 2003 Final Four in NOLA) that I wore on Thursday, cigar smoke and all. I think I am celebrating St. Patrick and honoring Warrior tradition.
