Who is excited as me for St. Patrick’s Festivities? It is an excuse to dress up over-the-top silly, drink green beer, and get into all the fun parades and bar crawls around town. This past weekend The Loop along with Cricket Wireless combined to make a really sweet float! All the people in the streets jammed to our classic rock tunes, and the kids went crazy for the beads and stickers. Featured on our float is a HUGE cell phone with our new application “Loop Live” on it. With Loop Live, you will never miss out on a thing; it's a free one stop shop concert app.

Our float was in the Elmhurst and Northwest Irish Parade this past weekend and will be in the Downtown Chicago Parade this Saturday from noon-2PM! At 10:45 AM you can even come out to see the traditional dyeing of the Chicago River green. We will have free fun stuff to hand out, and it’s a great time you definitely do not want to miss.

Along with St. Patrick’s Day always comes one of my most favorite times of the year, MARCH MADNESS!! So, here at the Loop we wanted to combine the best of both worlds, so we created a little Trish Madness/Kiss me I’m Chi-Rish for you all. There are tons of St. Patrick’s and basketball themed photos and downloads that you can check out right here. This photo shoot was soooo much fun, I got to be sexy and silly, and just have a great time with it all. Of course the best part of it all was the photo shoot at the basketball court; it's been a while, so I just loved goofing around out there. I cannot wait to see what you all think!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone! Cheers!

Here’s to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one.
A pretty girl and an honest one.
A cold beer…and another one!
