How not to look like a fool this St. Patty’s Day

Bartender with man and beer on table, St. Patty's Day

St. Patty’s Day is back!

St. Patrick’s day is here and it’s usually a jolly time, but things can sometimes run amuck. This holiday supposed to bring out the best of us, but can instead bring out some very messy looking creatures.

Today, we’re showing the do’s and don’ts of celebrating St. Patty’s day.

Don’t be that guy

We’ve all experienced that gent that may have had one too many at the local pub. 20 beers later, and you know the rest. He lost his phone, his wallet gets stolen, and we find a new puddle on the sidewalk.

Bro, we’ve all been there.

Instead…

Do: drink responsibly when out celebrating and look out for the crew.

Don’t look like a fool

Full disclosure, guys we sometimes look like straight up fools wearing so much green that even Kermit looks as us with side eyes.

Don’t reach for just any beer

Okay, well you could. You could reach for any boring old beer, but we know you don’t want to be basic.

Reach for the good stuff. Stuff you wouldn’t normally drink.

For some of you, that could be Guinness. We’ve all seen it on tap, but may have never tried it.

We caught up with a brew master from Ireland that happens to work at Guinness. Here’s a look at what he had to say.

What’s your name?

Domhnall Marnell

Do you have a nickname?

Due to the confusing spelling of my name (pronounced Doh-nall), some folks don’t even attempt to pronounce it. Therefore, quite a few have just gone with Big D! It’s hilarious when I see the fear in someone’s eyes at a public event, as they’re about to introduce me, only for them to panic on how to say my name and try to save it with a “Big D!”

What do you do and why do you do it?
