It’s March 17th, so below are links to some St Pat’s related Atlas Obscura articles.

My first school was St Patrick’s RC Primary (mainly kids of Irish and Ukrainian descent) and although it’s over sixty years since I left, I can still recall my mother’s warning, “Don’t let me ever catch you calling it ‘Saint Pat’s’.”
