The Goat is Opening Wicked Early for St. Paddy's Day Shenanigans

I am not the slightest bit Irish, but St. Paddy's Day will always hold a near and dear place in my heart. Everyone is Irish on St. Paddy's Day!

At my alma mater, UMASS Amherst, we had massive St. Paddy's Day celebration at the bars uptown called "Blarney Blowout" (not sure if it still exists...the Amherst police were not huge fans). We would get all gussied up and dress in green, put shamrock stickers on our faces, grab leprechaun hats and orange beards, and drink far too much green beer for our own good. College Kira was so much fun (cut to me now going to bed at 8 pm for my morning show)!

This year, the spot for your St. Paddy's Day shenanigans needs to be The Goat in Manchester or Portsmouth. They just announced that for the first time ever, they will be opening at 8am for brunch for FOUR DAYS over St. Paddy’s weekend Thursday-Sunday, for the ultimate March Madness bash. Let's talk about all that The Goat has to offer.
