15 Fun Things To Do on St.Patrick's Day

Katelin VonFeldt, Reporter

St Patrick’s Day was invented on March 17, 1631 and has been a classic tradition since. It all started when a Church established a Feast Day honoring St. Patrick, a Patron Saint of Ireland who had died around the fifth century, 12 centuries before the modern version of the holiday was first observed. Now over 389 years old it is celebrated as a holiday on March 17.
