The map of Ireland
Wherever there’s a mummer strutting up the Parkway, we’ll be there. Wherever there’s a jig playing so kids in curly wigs can dance, we’ll be there. We’ll be everywhere—everywhere you look.
We were there at the beginning of the 2011 Philadelphia St. Patrick’s Day Parade when the Emerald pipers marched past playing “Minstrel Boy” at 16th and JFK, and we were there at the end when the beer truck rolled by. (We’ve always thought that was a happy ending.)
It’s hard to take a parade that goes on for a few hours and boil it all down to its shamrocky essence. That didn’t stop us from trying. Oh, sure, the people at CBS3 showed the whole thing. But they’ve got, you know, cameras and helicopters and stuff.
Anyway, we did the best we could to capture as many of you as we could. We hope this all looks as fun for you as it was for us.
