I did. I have a green sweatshirt that I bought just for this particular holiday in mind, and I've worn it on March 17 for several years now. The problem though is that around this time of year, things start to warm up, and a sweatshirt isn't always a good idea.
And yes, I always make sure to wear green, our of fear some crazy stranger will shriek "YOU AREN'T WEARING GREEN" and viciously pinch my arm off. Can you sue for that now? I think you can....

I wore a green short sleeved shirt today. Ironically, I didn't wear it intentionally for St.Patrick's Day.

Some old man that I saw in the waiting area at Red Lobster. It was a dark green vest. He really looked like a leprechaun.

Green Chuck Taylors, and my shirt had three different shades of green. Plus, my eyes always sport my Irish pride. =D
Can you sue for that now? I think you can....It's assault. =P

True Irish don't wear green on St. Patrick's Day, so I didn't.

I couldn't. I had games today and our uniforms don't have any green in them (black and gold).

The shirt I have to wear for work is green so it was easy not to worry about getting pinched. Whats really cool though is some dude wore a kilt to the zoo, I admired him for that.

I wore a bright green shirt...
...by accident. I wasn't even thinking about it. Seems like this happens every year. I wear green by accident without thinking about it.
Come to think of it, I think I wore this same shirt last year, too. Maybe it's subconcious?

Nah.
Simply put, a demonic leprechaun sneaks into your room at night, then whispers subliminal messages in your ear to wear green the next day.

I wore a green shirt. Because I didn't want to get pinched by all my cousins.

I wore a shirt that is the same color as the borders on the main forum page.

The only green shirts I have are either polos or a Samurai Champloo tee that's too big on me. So I opted for the blue Transformers tee with the silver Autobot and Decepticon logos. My roommate, however, wore a green shirt on accident.

I have an Ireland brand jacket that's white with green sleeves, and has "DUBLIN" written across the chest, with an Irish flag next to it, which I wore all day yesterday.
Also, the Apron I wear at work is Green.

I put on a green sweater to protect me from pinching, even though I probably wouldn't get pinched anyway.

I wore green. Even though I'm not Irish, I wear green in honor of friends past and present, who are of Irish descent. I've been doing so for four years now.
The shirt I wore is coming apart though. It's a bit tattered in the cuffs, and there's a big hole forming in one of the sleeves. I'll have to make it a point to get a green shirt for next year, and all the years following until it also comes apart.
True Irish don't wear green on St. Patrick's Day, so I didn't.
Wait, they don't? Do you know why that is?

The whole "wearing green and drinking green-colored Guinness" thing was invented by TV and movies.
Really, the only thing green about Ireland is it's hills.

I only wear green on St. Patrick's Day to ward off the aforementioned weirdos who randomly walk up and pinch you. They scare me...:crying:

I wore a green Reebok shirt yesterday. In fact, I'm still wearing this shirt right now! :D

No, I think I wore purple. I haven't worried about wearing green since high school.

Yeah, I wore green. It was my usual Saturday volunteer stint at MoCCA, and I had a choice between a Green Lantern T-shirt or my Incredible Hulk Coaster shirt that was gotten at Universal. I opted for the Hulk shirt since, well, I was in a Marvel mood for some reason.

Actually Lads and Lassies, You can't pinch an Irishman.. even though he's Quarter Irish, Quarter Scotch, Half Prussian, and all around American Mutt.. and yes I was wearing a green shirt.. so double whammy to those who think I don't wear green.

Wore a green pocket tee under my work shirt, and covered it with a green sweatshirt.
Forgot to go to the local Stewart's Shop for a free ice cream, though, lol.:anime:

Wow. I didn't even know it was St. Patrick's Day.

Sorry but I have to take that as an offence, St Patricks Day is one of the most celebrated Irish holidays ever so the Irish can get more drunk than usual. Havn't you ever heard of four leaf clovers or lepricorns?

Uh, this post seems far more offensive, honestly. Perpetuating untrue stereotypes and all that jazz.

Uh, no.
Unless you're being sarcastic, your post is offensive to me, as an Irish guy. It's not even a major holiday in Ireland.

Well then I am sorry for being misguided.
