MHGO #42 30 years of barf

A 30 year tradition in Chicago has died. In the last 30 years the "South Side Irish Parade" has become a binge drinking tradition and an expected reason for employee call-offs on Monday morning.

The city of Chicago officially announced the cancelation of the repulsive (yes my opinion) specktakle of drinking and public urination on Monday, March 23rd.

I went once to this "event", and after trying to get to the actual parade route for 2+ hours, I turned right around. This parade/retardedness brings shame to the city and has evolved into something the initial founders in 1979 would have never have intended.

The city is one more step towards a healthy city.
