St. Patrick's Day is a special occasion day each year that is celebrated on March 17th. Beyond the corned beef, cabbage, and green beer, it's a day to commemorate that Christianity arrived in Ireland where the holiday originated. It became popular in the United States as so many people from Ireland migrated to America and brought their traditions with them. Because the day is to culminate in a feast, it's remained popular among the Irish here as well as been adopted by everyone in the country as an excuse to enjoy good food and drink. Since it's from Ireland, green is the color associated with this holiday. If you are not wearing green, the tradition used to be the you would get pinched, but that probably is no longer a tradition that is followed.
