St. Patrick's Day in Northeastern PA means public drunkenness, a huge parade and general debauchery unparalleled by any other holiday. The green beer overflows into the streets, hootin' and hollerin' fills the air and you can't go anywhere without seeing somebody falling all over themselves. With that little bit of history established...
The local weekly tabloid "Electric City" regularly features a section called "We Asked... You Answered." This week's question: "Where's the place to be on Parade Day (March 11)?"
Most answers were clear and to the point, naming local pubs and eateries like "Farley's," "Tink's" and "The Banshee." 2 other responses were a bit more odd. One contains too much information (referred to as "TMI" from this point on in this blog), while the second hints at this post's title. First...
Shannon Graham, 24, offers, "It's gonna be my first time going (to the parade). Farley's I hear is the best especially the bartender that's gonna be bartending that day. The hottest guy and the hottest girl."
Huh?
Joellen "Smashed to Smithereens" Cerra answers a bit more vaguely. "Kegs of root beer and eggs at 6 a.m!"
OK, you're already bombed to Hiroshima, and you're gonna down root beer and eggs first thing in the morning?!? Can you say, "Mulligan Stew???"
