Are you Irish? Well, you don't need to be, at this days, we actually don't need to be Irish, Brazilian, Japanese, Chinese, American or Mexican to get involved with holidays and culture parties commemorations. We are everywhere in the world... the funny thing about Saint Patrick day if does make you feel better is than the first Irish parade wasn't even in Ireland, as you see...
The first St. Patrick's Day parade took place not in Ireland but in the United States. Irish soldiers serving in the English military marched through New York City on March 17, 1762. Along with their music, the parade helped the soldiers reconnect with their Irish roots, as well as fellow Irishmen serving in the English army. - http://www.history.com/topics/st-patricks-day
