True, but hey, it's all we've got. The Irish have their day, let's have ours.
actually it's not the only Polish American holiday there is. Has anyone here ever heard of Dingus Day? I know it's celebrated in South Bend IN, but I was wondering if anyone else had heard of it, or if it is simply a local Polish-American tradition.
Pulaski Day is great. It isn't just a Daley mob holiday, the whole state of Illinois has the day off (although nowadays the Daley mob does run the whole state!) I grew up outside of Chicago and loved having the long weekend off from school, especially because it was so close to Presidents Day weekend and Spring Break. That was alot of vacation time in one month.
