Who could oppose St. Patrick's Day?

He's not against the actual holiday. Unofficial St. Patrick's Day is a huge pre-spring break drinking holiday. Everyone is drunk all day on that Friday and sometimes through the weekend. It was started by a bar owner around here who owns about half the campus bars.
They've been really trying to crack down on it lately. There are a ton of drinking tickets and at least one death, usual a drunk driving accident, each year as a result (although the people who have died in recent years have been students from other universities who come down to party)
