It is always a crazy weekend. St. Patrick's Stupidity - HeyJackass!
Given what the weather usually is in March, in Chicago, these numbers are pretty bad. (Cold weather puts a dampener on the festivities most weekends.)
The river will be dyed, the parades will march and the bars will be at full vomit-inducing capacity. Additionally, the weather is somewhat agreeable to both drunken revelers and subsequent walks of shame while doing little to prevent the usual nonsense elsewhere around town.
The final tally was 3 killed, 12 shot and wounded, which is about an average St. Patrick's Day weekend in Chicago.
