Cardinal George of Chicago is joined by 76 Cardinals in the US granting a dispensation to eat meat on Friday for Catholics on St. Patty's Day! During Lent Catholics are to abstain from eating meat, but the time-honored tradition of eating cornbeef and cabbage on St. Patty's Day will be allowed due to the recent dispensation. Catholics in Ireland will partake in eating boiled bacon as cornbeef and cabbage is an Irish-American tradition. Cardinal George has asked that practicing Catholics show discipline on an alternate day this week and abstain from meat on the alternate day.
I'll be hitting the streets of Chucktown with Mellen, Tumey and Jason Kopplin (General Sales Manager of Rick Hendrick BMW.) Look for us at O'Malleys. Saturday, the Bushido will roll the General to Columbia for the celebration at 5-points!
Have a safe and happy St. Patty's Day!
