“The only thing I like is that McDonalds has a Shamrock shake, that’s really good. That’s all I do.”

“I wear green because I don’t want to get pinched, but when I was younger my Mom used to make green breakfast.”

“Go to downtown Detroit and explore a little, maybe at Old Shillelagh’s.”

“My whole family usually comes over, and we have this decked out part just for fun. I have 14 nieces and nephews, so it’s basically for them. And you have to wear green somewhere visible, otherwise you get pinched.”
