St. Patrick brought Christianity to Ireland, and today he is patron of Ireland, New York and Boston, as welll as a handful of other cities and countries. On his saint's day, New Yorkers, can be found wearing all manner of green garments. Even the white line in the centre of 5th Avenue goes green and most people head for the pub to dronk to the health of the saint.
It is celebrated in Ireland, in some cities of England, Chicago, New York, Boston and some more cities in the United States of America.
Chicago:
In Chicago they dye the river of the city and the parade is enormous.
New York:
The parade is one of the biggest parades if the world. The 5th avenue is closed to traffic. Everybody wears green or get pinched.
