We know what we're supposed to do...but we don't know why! How did we end up celebrating a Catholic Saint by getting drunk and acting stupid? Who was St. Patrick? Was he even Irish? Find out in this edition of Truth or Fail.
You've probably noticed that it's about time to start throwing green dye in everything from beer to rivers because we are about to celebrate the life of a 5th century patron saint of Ireland, St. Patrick. But while we know what we're supposed to do on St. Patrick's Day, wear green and drink beer if we're old enough to, I don't know that we really know very much about it. So that is why I wanted to do this St. Patrick's Day edition of Truth or Fail. Your first set of facts.

Fact one: There is one four-leaf clover for every 100 regular three-leaf clovers.

OR

Fact two: According to legend, St. Patrick used the symbol of the shamrock to represent the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish people that he was trying to convert.
