Well St. Patty’s day really isn’t until tomorrow, but the celebrations went on this weekend in Pittsburgh. There were events going on all over the city. We had planned to go to the parade, but we just went to Market Square instead. Market Square is at the intersection of Forbes Avenue and Market Street in downtown Pittsburgh. They have it closed off for the celebrations. My friends and I took the bus down because there was no way we were going to be sober enough to drive back home. We got down there about 10AM and it was already pretty crowded. This was my first time down at Market Square for St. Patty day so I did not know what to expect.
All of the bars that are in the square had green beer and all kinds of specials. Within an hour or so of being there the entire square was packed with people and everyone was having a good time. I ended up seeing a lot of people that I haven’t seen in a long time. We stayed at Market Square for a few hours then walked across the bridge to Mcfadden’s, which is a bar on the North Shore. They had a lunch buffet, which was much needed after drinking all morning. We stayed there ate, watched the jello wrestling and drank some more. From there we made it home and I took a nap before going back out to BarRoom to party the rest of the night. It was a crazy weekend for sure, but I had a great time! I made a short video of Market Square, thanks to my friend Brian for being the host!
