Luck ‘o the Irish? Top 10 Things to Do on St. Patrick’s Day – COVID-19 Edition

2 - Wear Something Green – This is an easy feat for all us military reporting to work on St. Patrick’s Day, but even for those staying home, wearing green can be a lot of fun. Legend has it, people started wearing green on St. Patrick’s Day because they believed leprechauns would pinch anyone they could see (that is, anyone not wearing green). People began pinching anyone they saw not wearing green as a reminder to put on the green! However, due to social distancing this year, please limit your pinching efforts (this goes for kissing anyone who’s “Irish,” too). By the way, wearing orange is also fine (you know who you are).
