Good morning. We've been checking in on the St. Patrick's Day with our Alston Martin who is being keeping an eye on some of the fun like O'Malley Shamrock and shenanigans this morning. O'Malley's Shamrock and shenanigans. Alston, you there? Yeah, we've got shenanigans, Jay. Hold on, I'm breaking up a fight. It doesn't matter that he was born in England. Fight down. Big fight over St. Patrick and his birthplace. All right. Anything else? We need more shots. More shots. More. Calm down, everybody. I'm going to green beers if you drink. Seven. Seven. Exactly. Seven. Quick to answer. There she is. Alston, Martinick, live today at O'Malley Shamrock and shenanigans. So St. Patrick's Day, what do we need to know today? St. Patty's Day or St. Patty's Day? St. Patty, P-A-D-D-Y Day with two D's is generally considered more accurate than St. Patty's Day if you're going to T-T-Y.
Yeah, if you're going to shorten it, I think you go with the D's. Do you know how thoughtful and exciting I am? How thoughtful and exciting are you? Today's sandwich for Warren is corn beef and swish cheese on rye. Oh, I like that. I mean, you participated. Yeah, I did. And I reminded him to wear some green. Did you get a little bit of sauerkraut? Well, I could have gone a step further. I chose not to. Okay. But I did buy corn beef and I think that counts. Not the kind that you cook all day. No, the kind that Kroger packages up for you and says grab it. Was there a time? Was there a time once on our show where we'd get people to drop off big? Oh, yeah. Don't we have cornbread? What are the cornbread bread across the street from us at the I-Hart Building? Oh, Grovels. Oh, Grovels. Where's Grovels today? Probably in the I-Hart Building. Over there. Oh, that's right. And we need to set up a Fox 2 appointments with some of these people.
Yeah. Where we could go there for lunch? How about this? A couple of there's seen Patrick's Day food facts for you today. Wallet Hub has a list of the best cities for St. Patrick's Day, the top five are Boston. Reno, Nevada, Savannah, Georgia, Overland Park, Kansas, and Henderson, Nevada. Why Nevada so much? I know. Why is Chicago not? I'm not gonna say I'm sorry I'm biased, but the fact that Chicago's not. Do you have any idea what Jill was going to get in the car yesterday and go? It is a very big deal in Chicago. I've never been to see like, oh, no, it's fun. Yeah. In 1962, Chicago used 60 pounds of green dye to become the first city to successfully dye its river bright green on St. Patrick's Day. And now it's a thing. Right. Green dye isn't the only thing in the river. Some people recently spotted shark fins in the Chicago River, which obviously is impossible. It turned out it was a stunt to promote the upcoming Netflix movie Thresh. Oh, oh. I can imagine you're like looking into the river and you're like, wait a minute, that's impossible. That's a shark. Today's national corn
beef and cabbage day. Well, of course it is. Yeah, that's not a coincidence, is it? No, we play on that, right? For St. Patrick's Day, a new report ranked every state by how lucky they are. And the luckiest state is New Hampshire, while the unlucky estate is Texas. Wonder what the qualifications are for that. You don't hear about New Hampshire very often. No, no, that's probably for a reason. Well, they're little. Yeah, could possibly go wrong in New Hampshire. No, show.
