Happy St. Patty’s Day
It’s no surprise that Houstonians know how to celebrate big. Being the nation’s most diverse city means there’s always someone, something or some reason to celebrate. An old Texas saying Houstonians seem to live by is, “go big or go home” and man do we go big when we celebrate. Join the thousands of Houstonians this Tuesday as they celebrate the booziest, green-iest, pinch-iest holiday of the season. From all of us at Swoon, happy St. Patrick’s Day!
