Yeah - I thought about T.J.'s Irish Pub - but that's Ft. Caroline - & I don't count Beef O'Brady's (anywhere)....I'm not sure where Pete's Bar classifies, either.

Well even a big event at the beach would surely pull in the crowds especially when you factor in the beaches, a semi-compact entertainment district, and warmer weather.

Don't y'all know that after a pint of Irish Whiskey, they're ALL IRISH PUBS *(#*@!U&!

Where's my REBEL YELL!??

Because Jax is a Baptist town mostly, although there is a strong and growing Catholic Christian community. That said, some of the ways popular culture celebrates St. Patty's - getting completely wasted/blasted - is not neccessarily Catholic nor Christian.

I've been to the one O'Brothers and it was fun but if you want a large one just drive up to Savannah, I think it's the second largest St. Paddy's day fest in the US.

Because it doesn't involve football, country music or monstertrucks?

Happy St. Patrick's Day to all you Irish and Faux-Irish getting drunk off Guinness on your lunch breaks.

Our Irish born receptionist says Savannah St Paddy's day fest is a disappointing fake.
