Throw back to when Chicago’s river was green…captured by ismailsalihozer 💚🍀

💡Patrick’s Day and Chicago makes no exceptions! Every year, the Chicago Journeymen Plumbers Local Union 130 UA dyes the Chicago River green by using a secret orange dye. The annual tradition began in 1962 and it brings thousands of people to the riverbanks and nearby streets.

❓Have you witnessed Chicago’s green river ?
