Throwback to this remarkable day of each year captured by mrshutterup 🍀🤩 💡In Chicago, the Irish population grew steadily by the mid-1800s, but the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day didn’t take hold until the next century. The city’s first parade was held in 1956 and the unique tradition of dyeing the river green began in 1961. ❓Do you love this tradition? 🎥 mrshutterup 📍Chicago #chicagoriver #chicagostpatricksday #stpatricksday #chicagotradition #chicagocelebration
