When I was in college St. Pats was HUGE! We were on semesters at the time, and the big schools around us (Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State) had different Spring Breaks from us -- Generally starting on St. Pats' weekend. So, on their way to Florida, hundreds of them stopped in Athens on Friday and Saturday nights.
Unfortunately, the party generally turned into riots.
I have often suspected that one of the reasons Ohio University changed to the quarter system was to move Spring Break to cover St. Pattys weekend.
Now, the huge party is on Halloween.
