| Wear Something Different this Saint Pat's Day |
Hah! You are saying, what kind of nonsense is that--wear a Saint Kevin shirt on Saint Patrick's Day.
Well maybe it is not as daft as it sounds?
Saint Patrick did his work in the 5th century and there was lot of cleanup to be done in the late 6th and 7th centuries--and who was more patient to serve than the Irish Saint Kevin who according to tradition stuck his arm out in prayer one day and a blackbird landed on it and nested. And what did Saint Kevin do, but keep his hand up and waited weeks for the bird's eggs to hatch and the birds to grow feathers and fly away.
And who better to show the Irish the best tactic to avoid sin on Saint Patrick Day then Saint Kevin who one day found his mind wandering in the wrong direction when a pretty girl entered the woods, he hightailed it to a patch of itchy nettles and dove right in as an outdoor substitute for a cold shower.
Some might dismiss the story of Saint Kevin and the Blackbird as myth, but not us. We had this beautifully serviceable shirts made up for all Saint Kevin fans and you can get yours now in time for Saint Patrick's Day as sportingchancepress.com But don't wait too long, we don't have many and the feast day is barely a month away.
