Why green clothes on St. Patrick’s Day?
Wearing green has become a staple of St. Patrick's Day, but the
holiday was originally associated with the color blue. It's
thought that the shift to green happened because of Ireland's
nickname "The Emerald Isle," the green in the Irish flag and
the shamrock, or clover. Green ribbons and shamrocks were
worn as early as the 17th century. During the Irish Rebellion of
1798, an uprising against British rule in Ireland, Irish soldiers
wore full green uniforms on March 17 to make a political state-
ment. Legend has it that wearing green makes a person invisi-
ble to leprechauns that will pinch someone if they see them.
