"But seriously, we help people in recovery prevent relapse, we provide a counterpoint to the pervasive drunken Irish stereotype and we give families a chance to show their children authentic Irish culture away from the sea of alcohol that has flooded the day meant to honor the patron saint of Ireland." Admission includes food and great entertainment. Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for students and seniors, and $6 for kids aged 10 & under.
