Irishness

[Scout]

After several conversations with different members i'm just wondering how many people have Irish connections, or are Irish themselves.

I drink in an Irsih Pub

But do you drink Irish beverages while in said Pub?

 

[BossyCow]

Irish on both sides, plus my maiden name is a brand of irish whiskey.

I do have a bit of dutch, swiss and english in there somewhere as well. Then, just to complicate my kids' ethnicity, married a cubano.

 

[fortsmithman]

Nope French, Cree, and Chipwyan here.

My bar is called McSorley's. Every drink is Irish.

I volunteered a couple weeks back as EMT Standby at an Irish football game tournament in San Francisco. Think they called it "Footie", but I'm not sure. It was an All-Stars Exhibition, so surprisingly few EMS incidents. If it had been for-real, it looked to be a pretty rough game, kind of like a combination of rugby and soccer...

Part irish, but more scottish, as the username suggests.

My great,great grandfathers on my fathers side came over about 1848. My mothers side is Scotch. But since I was born on this side of the ocean I'm Canadian of Irish and Scotch ancestry.

If the Irish and Scotch both make whiskey, does that make me a drunk?

 

[marineman]

25% Scottish, 25% Irish and 50% German = 100% pissed off alcoholic

 

[JonTullos]

Scotch-Irish with German, Choctaw and Cherokee mixed in just for kicks. I did like to drink but I gave that up a couple of years ago.

At least I got it honestly.

Berkeman, it's called GAA, which stands for Gaelic Athletic Association. It's a pretty rough game, and commonly referred to as "Gaelic".

As for me, I'm 100% Irish. Proud, passport-holding, Irish Citizen who's just moved here after spending the first 27 years of my life in Dublin!

Na, but I wish I was

My fiance is though. ^_^

The pub may be Irish, but the name isn't.

Maybe they could change it to O'Sorley's

 

[Scout]

Really?

[Scott33]

Yeah, really.
