Think you're seeing green today?
Don't worry because it's St. Patrick's
Day. It's also a perfect excuse to go
out (you don't have to be Irish, but
it helps) and celebrate.
If you really want authentic Irish
fare, go to Molly Maguire's Irish Pub.
The special for the day is (do you
need help with this one?) corned beef
and cabbage. (There are no drink
specials.)
Spanky's is also featuring corned
beef and cabbage along with Black
and Tan (a traditional Irish drink) and
Irish whiskey as the specials for the
day. Special St. Patrick's Day T-shirts
will also be on sale.
y's Day around town
And Darryl's will be providing an
Irish motif with a table of (yes, you
guessed it!) corned beef and cabbage
with roast pig at noon. There will be
specials on Irish beers and drinks. Kegs
will be set up on the upper level.
Sometime during the day, WTRC's
Mark Patrick will be at Darryl's to
hand out a $100 bill to the first three
people to recognize him. From 9
pmto 1 am, the band Cream of Soul
will be playing. At midnight, there will
be a raffle for a 19-inch television.
Anyone over 18 years of age can
register for it. And there will be
various green Darryl's paraphernalia
on sale all day.
If corned beef and cabbage
doesn't appeal to you, what about
Irish stew? WFUN and McCarthy's
Restaurant are having a large cele
bration together and offering com
plimentary Irish stew from 5 to 8 p.m.
Irish Kiss cocktails are $1.50 and Irish
beer is $1.25.
The celebration will take place
under a green and white tent in
WRJN's parking lot from 5 to 11 p.m.
Admission is $3 per member and $4
per guest.
Entertainment under the tent will
include a deejay, live bagpipers and
Irish musicians. Guests can go inside
the club to dance.
WFUN and McCarthy's isn't the
only St. Patrick's Day combination
effort. WRDU 106 FM will be broad
casting live from Applebee's. Green
beer will be served fa $1.06 from
5 to 10 p.m. Leprechaun Wings
(Buffalo chicken wings) will also be
$1.06.
Cash prizes of crisp green $100 bills
will be handed out through out the
evening. There will be Irish jigs and
a contest for the best Irish costume.
Also one winner will be selected
to compete with winners from the
other four Triangle Applebee's for a
trip to Daytona Beach, Fla., for the
Spring Fest. The prize also includes
two sets of tickets and backstage
passes to see Robert Cray and the
Squeeze.
According to some revelers,
there's simply no other way to get
into the Irish spirit than with spirits.

ers for $1.75; Dr. Pepper's for $2.75;
Irish Coffee for $2.75,- and light
