“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.” 

Lindsey Burch, 21

“I usually wear green and my parents force me to eat green food and stuff like broccoli.” 

Joshua Williams, 16

“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.”

“My family and I go to Milwaukee, Wisconsin where we hang out with our relatives and we go down to the lake to see Irish bands play.”
