Forget the downtown parade, if you want a real St. Patrick's Day celebration, check out the South Side.

Better than downtown
by MDF3530 at Citysearch
If you ask me, the Western Avenue parade is much better than the one downtown. The one downtown is all politicians, corporations and unions. The one on Western Avenue is, from what I've heard, just like the one in Dublin-clans, bagpipe bands and local shops.

Fun for all
by jpierce_52 at Citysearch
Every year Western Avenue is bombarded by the people from all over the city, and every year the South Siders make everyone feel welcome. It is a wonderful tradition, and is more fun every year. It is great for the kids, but adults that are ready to party can expect a raucous yet inviting atmosphere.
