On St. Patrick’s Day weekend, Icarus took to thegroundnyc to celebrate our community of New York clubs and the city’s favorite holiday in equal measure. The main event of the day was a 4v4 tournament, with a pop-up shop, DJ (havax_music), and sideline kenwoodbeer giving those not in the thunderdome plenty to enjoy.
Lesson: you can have all the St. Patrick’s cheer you like off the pitch, but all it takes is 6 title-winning teams and a pitch made for nutmegs to give your chill, friendly event a noticeably competitive edge.
unitedgoalfc came home with the coveted St. Patrick’s Invitational keg, and the magisterial jessemoritz kindly caught the action on tape. Some players will be very thankful he put down the camera before the afterparty.
A lucky day indeed.
