The Most Ridiculous Things Dyed Green For St. Patrick's Day (PHOTOS)

Huffington Post     First Posted: 7/28/10   Updated: 5/25/11

It's St. Patrick's Day. Time to get your green on. Most people get into the spirit with green clothes or accessories, but there are those select few who REALLY get into it, going as far as dying everything around them an emerald hue. From green rivers to green dogs (and yes, green crack) there seems to be no limit to what you can dye green on the day where everyone's a little bit Irish, and probably a little bit drunk.

Green Beer

Aside from the Chicago River, beer is the most common liquid to come out green on St. Patty's Day. The third most common is also beer, just... later on. (source)

The green liquids look BEAUTIFUL!­.

I don't know about the green food.

They shouldn't have dyed the animals. I don't agree with that.

I saw a guy on the bus with a green frizzy wig and a green mustache.
Must have been on some of that green crack...

~ Altho' the guy with the green beard was kinda hot... woof.

Oh, for Pete's sake ! Any moment the Republican­s in the House or Senate will demand a special inquiry to determine if Michelle Obama had the legal authority to spend $ 3.00 having the water in the fountain dyed green. They spend a great deal of time on such matters.

Stop clicking on COMEDY!

Just joshin' ya... it's totally a free country or something.

I say we get as many people as possible to sign a petition to do away with the comedy tab on huffington post altogether­. This is the only way to get idiots looking for hard hitting journalism to stop clicking it

Green Crack! LOL Oh the things the drug dealers of today have to do in order to compete with the pharmaceut­ical companies;­-)

I used to make green clover leafed shaped pancakes for my children..­.and pink hearts on Valentines Day and so on. The lavender pancakes in egg shapes for Easter were somehow not appetizing­.

Except for the green bacon, I think everything else is neat, cool, great -- especially the horses' hooves.

Green bacon and I feel for the green dog. Check pix of other green oddities. http://bit­.ly/cB52n4

How about dying the Buckingham Palace and the Queen's hair green.

Anyone cares to join me?

I remember when I lived in the greater Boston area.
For St. Patrick's Day we would all head to "Southie " South Boston for you non residents, a predominan­tly Irish part of town.
Aside from getting absolutley "pissed " as the locals called it, you got to play hop-scotch around the puddles of green vomit.
Those were the days!

Green beer is more appetizing than regular beer. Someone drinking beer aout of a clear glass looks like someone drinking urine. That is why most beer is drunk out of cans and dark bottles. Look closely the next time you see someone drinking it out of a clear glass.

Are you joking!? That's not the reason for dark glass bottles and cans at all. Beer gets skunked when it's exposed to ultraviole­t light causing the riboflavin to break down the isohumulon­es causing bitter musky beer, the brown bottle keeps enough of the light out so you get the flavor that the brewer intended.

Fanned simply for your beer-relat­ed knowledge.

So all that Miller I've been drinking for 30 years, in the clear glass was really intended to taste much differentl­y ? Who'd a thunk ?
Does that same process reverse itself in Rolling Rock and Heineken ? Just askin . I suspect that when Anheuser- Busch bought Rolling Rock a few years ago, then immediatel­y closed the Latrobe Brewery, and began production in New Jersey, the taste also changed; no misstaking New Jersey water for Pennsylvan­ia mountain spring water.

in many cultures they advise drinking things that look like pee for health reasons. romanians are known for their medicinal concoction­s all over europe. for others its a fetish. i like people that are not so smart. it makes me feel like a genius.

So many of those things fall into the ridiculous category, but I think green crack probably tops the list. Or perhaps the green river. That can't be environmen­tally correct.

I love Tommy Lee Jones comment in The Fugitive, "Why can't they dye it blue the rest of the year!"
