Do you celebrate Dyngus Day?

[dmiller]

This is the first I've ever heard of it.

And I'm part Polish too!

That's a new one for me... :)

Thats a new one for me--

Today is already a double holiday here in Massachusetts (Patriots Day and Evacuation Day)which most people have off--If they could move Dyngus up or back a week we'd have a few takers I'm sure

I dunno....is there green beer involved? What do Polish folks drink, anyway??

My maiden name is Jones and I was so tickled to get rid of my "plain jane" last name.....come to find out, after excitedly taking my married last name....it's friggin' Polish for Jones..... :huh:

Ha!! Look at em, having fun, and holding wimpwillow branches!!

Buffalo NY celebrates ethnic heritage like no city I have ever seen. Polka bands and beer are the big news of the day - and I had to work!

However...........Dyngus Day has become Dyngus week - there still is time.

This is the way we do it here - week by week, rather than day by day.

Last month it was St. Pats, followed by the Italian St. Joe's

Summer festival season starts in March and goes to the Wingfest finale in Sept.

Ahhhh, Buffalo.

Ebn -- and up here in Minney-soda -- St. Urho's day is bigger that St. Pat's day!

St. Urho's day is the day before St. Pat's -- and everyone wears purple.

Woops -- I forgot to add St. Urho. :)
