St Patty's Day Parade pix (Detroit) The St. Patrick's Day Parade in Detroit is held in one of its oldest neighborhoods, Corktown. It was settled by Irish immigrants around 200 years ago. It is the oldest neighborhood west of Grand Circus Park. Thanx to Michi from skyscraperpage.com for the pics.
Great turnout and great weather for the parade. 
There was a 10k race before paprade time.

A pimped out Irishman! 
"Let me tell ya a limerick, ya young lad!" 
When I was a kid, this kinda thing scared the hell outta me. 
She shouldnt have let her dog swim in the Detroit River.

There is a black woman in the second last picture. 
Does everyone pretend to be Irish in America when its St Patricks day? Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

That looks like a blast. I've lived near Detroit all my life and I've never been to one. Maybe I'll try to catch it next year. | |

Yeah, Detroit throws a mean Labor Day Parade too. There are usually tons of anti-Bush protests!  | |
