It's a great weekend to wear that green! And you'll have plenty of opportunities to show your Irish heritage. (Everyone's at least a little bit Irish on St. Patrick's Day). Not only will there be lots of leprechauns on the loose in downtown Reno, but a good share of them will also be on the Comstock for the annual Rocky Mountain Oyster Fry, St. Patrick's Parade and Ball Breakers Brawl. That plus a Doggie Palooza?! What more could you ask for? Enjoy!
