St. Patrick’s Day parade steps off in Chicago’s Loop with bagpipes, politicians
First responders did their best to guide the crowds into position while police horses with green bows stood watch. No masks were in sight, a sign that the public feels COVID-19 is fully over. The parade came back last year after waylaying the parade for“We’re just excited to see what we’re going to see,” Karina Rocha said. “We don’t know what to expect.”
She and her daughter Madeline live in Chicago but COVID-19 and other life events have made this Madeline’s inaugural St. Patrick’s Day parade.Many — like Madeline — were experiencing their first Chicago St. Patrick’s Day. Others with more experience could not help but reflect on how the parade has changed.“It’s so much more corporate,” Megan Moon who last came to the parade 30 years ago told the Tribune. “It used to be people, now it feels like it’s companies more.
“What’s better than getting the community together and celebrating St. Patrick’s Day?” Vince Caruso who attends the University of Kansas said. Another traditional fixture is the Parade Queen. Casey Doherty and her court waved from a float decked out in green frills. While most people who attended the parade are only Irish for the day, for some this day runs deep, said Christian Baker, who is originally from England and his wife Sarah Geraghty, originally from Ireland. They live in Chicago now.“We always think it’s such a great atmosphere on St. Patrick’s Day in Chicago,” Geraghty said. “We’ve never seen anything like it anywhere else we’ve been.”“I think the whole world knows,” she told the Tribune.
