A week of Green in the Fargo Moorhead Area
Thursday
Dempsey's 4th Year anniversary party
What a way to kick off St. Patrick's Day week with a birthday for an Irish Pub. Bert and Klaus may have to bring cots to Dempsey's this year. My hunch is this year, St. Patty's Day will be quite the enabler for those looking for easy justification to kick back a few. A birthday for an Irish Pub - we have to be cultural don't we? The next night Poitin, and Irish Band is playing, then Saturday is the St. Patrick's Day Parade. Sunday I imagine most bodies will still be slightly pickled until Monday. There may be a few days to rest before the hard core St Patty Day veterans show up at 7am for their corn beef, cabbage and food colored-beer.
