From across the pond, Irish KC compiles a killer list of reactions to this year's Irish Fest. The post features Twitter chatter, photos and video.
My favorite money quote:
"Seems all you need to be irish is to be white. Free Ireland my ass. Your last name is goldberg."Strangely, that nasty comment disputing ethnic identity seems like such an authentic Kansas City statement at one of this cowtown's greatest new-ish annual events.
TKC EXCLUSIVE BLIND ITEM: There's also a bit of chatter regarding a local public official, an angry altercation, spilled beer and an arrest . . . But a bit of fighting is to be expected at any KC gathering . . . Especially an interesting one where cowtown drunks don't know when they're messing with much more important KC residents.
